Any delay in adequate antibiotic treatment may compromise the outcome of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). However, the diagnosis and optimal treatment of VAP remain a challenge for intensivists. Jung et al.[1] assessed the potential impact of using results of once-aweek routine quantitative endotracheal aspirate (EA) cultures to guide initial antibiotic treatment in a study of 113 episodes of bronchoalveolar lavage-confirmed VAP. When guided by EA, the initial antibiotic regimen was adequate in 85% of situations, a proportion significantly superior to that resulting from application of the ATS guidelines (73%). When clinicians did not have a pre-VAP EA to guide their treatment (EA not performed group), only 61% of treatments were adequate, confirming that routine surveillance cultures may help to improve the adequacy of empiric antibiotic therapy for VAP. Respiratory physiotherapy and early mobilisation have been suggested to both prevent and treat VAP. Patman et al.[2] performed a prospective, randomised controlled trial in 144 patients with acquired brain injury (ABI) on the effect of physiotherapy. This study found that a regular respiratory physiotherapy regimen including positioning, manual hyperinflation and suctioning repeated six times per day, when provided in addition to routine medical/nursing care, did not significantly reduce the incidence of VAP, length of MV or ICU/hospital stay for adults with ABI. Due to the small number of patients diagnosed with VAP, it was not possible to draw any conclusions as to whether respiratory physiotherapy hastens the recovery from VAP in terms of duration of MV, length of ICU/hospital stay or clinical variables such as the daily CPIS score.Previous studies have established that acquisition of P. aeruginosa is associated with the administration of antimicrobial agents devoid of antipseudomonal activity. In this regard, however, the role of antipseudomonal agents is less clear. During an intervention study aimed to compare a mixing versus a cycling strategy of antibiotics use in the critical care setting, Martinez et al.[3] were able to gather detailed longitudinal data about exposure to antibiotics and colonisation by P. aeruginosa. Their data suggest that quinolones and antipseudomonal cephalosporins may actually prevent the acquisition of P. aeruginosa, whereas piperacillin-tazobactam and amikacin may enhance it. With respect to the acquisition of resistance, they found that quinolones and cephalosporins were rather neutral, whereas all the other agents were associated with the acquisition of resistance also to other antibiotics. Interestingly, emergence of resistance never arose to detectable levels before 3 days of continuous therapy and combination treatment was not useful for prevention.
