Definitions
HCAP-signs, symptoms and radiographic presence
of PNA in CAP patients with recent contact with the
healthcare system
HAP- 48-72 hrs after hospital admission
VAP- 48-72 hrs after endotracheal intubation
Epidemiology of Pneumonia
Leading cause of infectious diseases related death globally
and in the US
CDC (2006) more than 56 K deaths
1.2 mln out of 35 mln annual US hospitalizations
US expenditures > $8 billion annually
300K cases of HAP/y with associated mortality rate 30-70%
HAP lengthens hospital stay by 7-9 days
Healthcare Associated Pneumonia
ATS/IDSA Guidelines 2005
Hospitalization for 2 days or more in the preceding 90 days
Residence in the NH or ECF
Home infusion therapy ( including abx)
Chronic dialysis within 30 days
Home wound care
Family member with a MDR pathogen
HCAP as clinical entity
Large, heterogeneous patient population with a
poorly defined conglomeration of risk factors that
may increase the risk of infection with a drug
resistant pathogen

Recommendations for Assessing Response to
Treatment
-Modifications of empirical therapy should be based on results of microbiology testing in
conjunction with clinical parameters.
-Clinical improvement of HCAP usually takes 2 to 3 days and therefore therapy should not be
changed during this period unless there is a rapid clinical decline.
-Narrowing therapy to the most focused regimen possible on the basis of culture data (deescalation of antimicrobials) should be considered for the responding patient.
-The nonresponding patient should be evaluated for possible MDR pathogens, extrapulmonary
sites of infection, complications of pneumonia and its therapy, and mimics of pneumonia.
-Testing should be directed to whichever of these causes is likely after physical examination of
the patient.
Prevention Measures
Based on expert opinion rather than hard data
CDC published a set of 74 recommendations for preventing NAP ,
only 15 strongly supported by well-designed experimental or
epidemiologic studies
14 out of those 15 dealt with surveillance, education, hand washing,
sterilization, proper use of gloves, value of vaccination, and sanitation
Prophylactic antibiotics not be used routinely , only one supported by
well-designed studies
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Guidelines for prevention of nosocomial pneumonia. MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 46: 1997;
1-79.
Prevention Measures
Proper hand washing, use of gloves, and measures to reduce
contamination from respiratory therapy equipment
Universally recognized, often not performed, see observational study
performed in an ICU setting 10% of health care workers washed their
hands before having direct patient contact and only 32% washed
their hands after patient contact
Risk factors for an outbreak of multi-drug-resistant Acinetobacter nosocomial pneumonia among intubated patients. Chest. 115: 1999;
1378-1382.
Reduction of HCAP Incidence
Reduce immunosuppression, reduce sedation, avoid
transportation of patients out of the ICU, and provide
adequate nutrition
Oral placement of endotracheal or gastric tubes (sinusitis
reduction)
Subglottic secretion drainage, continuous suction of
oropharyngeal secretions in an effort to prevent pooling and
thus aspiration
Semirecumbent position prevents aspiration of refluxed
gastric contents
Supine body position as a risk factor for nosocomial pneumonia in mechanically ventilated patients: A randomised trial. Lancet. 354: 1999;
1851-1858.
Reduction of HCAP Incidence
Administration of prophylactic antibiotics or nonabsorbable antibiotics for the purpose
of gastrointestinal decontamination
Not shown to influence mortality or length of stay, use of antibiotics in this manner
may lead to the development of resistant organisms
International conference for the development of consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Chest. 120: 2001; 955-970.
Results regarding the role of histamine blockers in the development of HAP are
conflicting
Antibiotics select out resistant or virulent organisms, 65% of PNA in vented patients
who received prophylactic abx was caused by Acinetobacter and /or Pseudomonas
sp.
In antibiotic-naïve patients, only 19% of infections were caused by these pathogens

quantitative culture techniques. Am Rev Respir Dis. 139: 1989; 877-884.
Things to Remember
HACP, HAP, VAP = BAD for the patient
Quantitative diagnostic microbiology- controversial!
Cover likely bugs promptly
Know your local bugs
De-escalate, shorten duration of therapy
Specific regimen, combination therapy- no proven
benefits
Things to Do
Get patient’s HOB at 30-45 degrees
Get the ET tube out
Get the NG tube out
Get of the ventilator as ap
