Condition: Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) · Sponsor: Qilu Hospital of Shandong University
Previous studies have identified Acinetobacter baumannii (AB), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), and Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) as the predominant pathogens responsible for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). The challenge of drug resistance, especially against carbapenem is intensifying, with variations noted across different regions. Multidrug-resistant organisms associated VAP (MDR-VAP) are increasing in frequency and are associated with significant morbidity, mortality, therefore imposes a heavy burden on the healthcare system. Colistin methanesulfonate sodium (CMS) has shown effectiveness against gram-negative bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) such as carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA), and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of a 3-day course of inhaled CMS in lowering the incidence of VAP among patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation for at least two days and at high risk of MDR-VAP.
