The Problem with Ventilator Associated Pneumonias (VAPs)
•
(VAP) is an important complication of mechanical ventilation
•
Prior NHSN definitions•
Designed to be used for surveillance of all healthcare-associated PNEU
•
Including, but not limited to VAP
•
However, other bad things can also occur to patients on ventilators

The Problem with Ventilator Associated Pneumonias (VAPs)
•
Not ideal in an era of public reporting of healthcare-
associated infection (HAI) rates, comparisons among facilities, pay-for-
performance programs

The Problem with Ventilator Associated Pneumonias (VAPs)
Need definitions that are reliable, objective and valid
Ventilator Associated Events
•
VAP Surveillance Definition Working Group•
September 2011
•
Algorithm for detection of ventilator associated events (VAEs)
•
Objective criteria•
Clinical data•
Improve sensitivity and specificity•
Potentially amenable to electronic data capture
New VAE Definition Algorithm
•
Designed to detect•
Ventilator-associated conditions and complications
•
including (but not necessarily limited to) VAP•
Requires a minimum period of time on the ventilator
•
Focuses on readily-available, objective clinical data
AND•
Does not include chest radiograph findings

New VAE Definition Algorithm
•
Included•
Patients who are receiving a conventional mode of mechanical ventilation while in the prone position
•
Patients who are receiving a conventional mode of mechanical ventilation while receiving nitric oxide therapy or epoprostenol therapy
•
Patients on Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) or related modes are INCLUDED
BUT•
VAC determined by changes in FiO2
only, since changes in PEEP as indicated in this surveillance algorithm may not be applicable to APRV

VAEs defined by a 14 day period
•
Event date = day 1•
A new VAE cannot be identified or reported until this 14 day period has elapsed

VAE Definitions
•
Always follow the CDC NHSN surveillance criteria
•
Biggest error……….not using the objective criteria but rather using subjective physician assessments
•
Not all VAPs are diagnosed correctly by a physician
Reporting Data
•Don’t be bullied –
you are the experts•Concurrent review with your team•Don’t surprise anyone at the end of the month
VAP to VAE

•New definitions•Improved quality•May not be comparable with past data•Lessons of the past still applicable
