Subglottic Secretion Aspiration In The Prevention Of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia: A Review Of The Literature., Rachel Scherzer
Subglottic Secretion Aspiration In The Prevention Of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia: A Review Of The Literature., Rachel Scherzer
Jefferson Hospital Staff Papers and Presentations
Ventilator-associated pneumonia is a common nosocomial infection that results in both negative patient outcomes and increased health care costs. Recently, many efforts have been targeted at ventilator-associated pneumonia prevention, including the practice of subglottic secretion aspiration. Six randomized control studies examining the effectiveness of subglottic secretion aspiration in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia were reviewed for this article. Results consistently show that subglottic secretion aspiration significantly reduces the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia in a variety of patient populations. Despite these findings, this practice is limited in clinical settings. This clinical practice should be implemented in individuals requiring mechanical ventilation to …
