Clinical Trial Summary

Ventilator Associated pneumonia (VAP) is associated with longer ICU length of stay, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and increased use of antimicrobials, health-care cost and mortality . Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) comprise a large and heterogeneous group of infections, including bacterial infections, viral infections, and infections of other etiologies. Early initiation of adequate antibiotic therapy is the cornerstone in the treatment. However, overuse of antibiotics and prolonged duration of antibiotic therapy in patients with bacterial ARIs in the hospital and intensive care setting is associated with increased resistance for common bacteria, high costs, and adverse drug reactions.
