“…We found no between-group difference in VAP incidence after considering extubation and death within 90 days as competing events. In our study, VAP was not associated with higher 90-day mortality, in contrast with previous studies (30). Previous studies did not report an increased risk of ICU-acquired infection associated with HDCT use in patients having nonresolving ARDS (11,12).…”

“…About that, Italy is one of the six countries reporting a CFR of > 10%, and approximately 23% of people aged 65 years old or older may explain this higher CFR [ 16 ]. Several influencing factors can also be found on differences in time lags between reporting of infections and deaths: some may be detected on healthcare system organization as infrastructures and surveillance capacities others to patients’ general conditions as aged comorbidity [ 17 ].…”

“…The COVID-19 pandemic has accumulated a high number of deaths 1 , where it has been estimated that approximately 80% of patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU) require mechanical ventilation, which is a risk factor for the development of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) 2 , 3 . Patient-associated comorbidities are another risk factor that increases the likelihood of acquiring VAP, complicating the clinical condition of COVID-19 patients and directly impacting the mortality 2 , 4 , 5 , 6 . Among the causative agents of VAP in COVID-19 patients are those belonging to the ESKAPE group 7 , 8 , 9 .…”

“…This acronym is composed of bacteria such as Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter spp., among others 10 , 11 . These bacteria have been recognised as pathogens in critically ill and immunocompromised individuals, and may be associated with resistance to multiple antibiotics 5 , 12 , 13 . The hospital environment play an important role in the development of Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAI) including VAP 14 , 15 .…”
