pubmed:abstractText |
Controversy persists regarding the optimal treatment regimen for Pseudomonas ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Combination antibiotic therapy is used to broaden the spectrum of activity of empiric treatment and provide synergistic bacteriocidal activity. The relevance of such "synergy" is commonly supposed but poorly supported. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of monotherapy in the treatment of Pseudomonas VAP as measured by microbiological resolution.
