pubmed:abstractText |
Using an arbitrary day cutoff or clinical signs to decide the duration of antibiotic therapy for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) may be suboptimal for some patients. We sought to determine whether antibiotic duration for VAP can be safely abbreviated in trauma patients using repeat bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL).
