Impacto de la neumonía asociada a ventilación mecánica en la mortalidad de los pacientes con peritonitis secundaria
Year: 2022

Background: Despite the significant impact of nosocomial infections on the morbidity and mortality of patients staying in the intensive care unit (ICU), no study over the past 20 years has focused specifically on VAP following secondary peritonitis. The objective of the present study was to determine in-hospital mortality and epidemiologicalfeatures attributed to ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) following secondary peritonitis.
