Assessment of endotracheal aspirate culture appropriateness among adult ICU patients at an academic medical center

Assessment of endotracheal aspirate culture appropriateness among adult ICU patients at an academic medical center

Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a significant cause of mortality in intensive care units (ICUs), but minimal research exists regarding the appropriateness of ordering endotracheal aspirate cultures (EACs). We evaluated the diagnostic utility of rationales given for EAC collectio...
