Burns, inhalation injury and ventilator-associated pneumonia: value of routine surveillance cultures.
Brusselaers N, Logie D, Vogelaers D, Monstrey S, Blot S. Brusselaers N, et al. Burns. 2012 May;38(3):364-70. doi: 10.1016/j.burns.2011.09.005. Epub 2011 Oct 29. Burns. 2012. PMID: 22040929
PURPOSE: Burn patients with inhalation injury are at particular risk for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Routine endotracheal surveillance cultures may provide information about the causative pathogen in subsequent VAP, improving antibiotic therapy. ...CONCLU …

Surveillance cultures in healthcare-associated pneumonia: sense or nonsense?
Scholte JB, van Mook WN, Linssen CF. Scholte JB, et al. Curr Opin Pulm Med. 2014 May;20(3):259-71. doi: 10.1097/MCP.0000000000000044. Curr Opin Pulm Med. 2014. PMID: 24614241 Review.
Surveillance cultures may be useful for antibiotic guidance, but positive predictive value and specificity of surveillance cultures are low, obviously negatively impacting on cost effectiveness, especially in the large population at risk for HCAP. ...C …

Value of lower respiratory tract surveillance cultures to predict bacterial pathogens in ventilator-associated pneumonia: systematic review and diagnostic test accuracy meta-analysis.
Brusselaers N, Labeau S, Vogelaers D, Blot S. Brusselaers N, et al. Intensive Care Med. 2013 Mar;39(3):365-75. doi: 10.1007/s00134-012-2759-x. Epub 2012 Nov 28. Intensive Care Med. 2013. PMID: 23188467
METHODS: A systematic review and diagnostic test accuracy meta-analysis were performed to analyse whether lower respiratory tract surveillance cultures accurately predict the causative pathogens of subsequent VAP in adult patients. ...Sub-analyses were conducted for …

The role of surveillance cultures in guiding ventilator-associated pneumonia therapy.
Luna CM, Bledel I, Raimondi A. Luna CM, et al. Curr Opin Infect Dis. 2014 Apr;27(2):184-93. doi: 10.1097/QCO.0000000000000042. Curr Opin Infect Dis. 2014. PMID: 24451980 Review.
Bacterial colonization of the airway leads to the development of VAP and may result from the aspiration of oropharyngeal or gastric secretions. Recent studies have suggested that surveillance cultures could provide a rationale for prescribing appropriate antibiotics …

De-escalation therapy in ventilator-associated pneumonia.
Niederman MS. Niederman MS. Curr Opin Crit Care. 2006 Oct;12(5):452-7. doi: 10.1097/01.ccx.0000244126.84989.a2. Curr Opin Crit Care. 2006. PMID: 16943725 Review.
RECENT FINDINGS: Initial empiric therapy can be appropriate in 80-90% of ventilator-associated pneumonia patients, if it is selected on the basis of local microbiologic data or individual patient surveillance cultures. Following initial empiric therapy, de-escalatio …

[Microbiological monitoring of ventilator-associated pneumonia in an intensive care unit].
Joost I, Lange C, Seifert H. Joost I, et al. Dtsch Med Wochenschr. 2010 Feb;135(5):197-202. doi: 10.1055/s-0029-1244836. Epub 2010 Jan 26. Dtsch Med Wochenschr. 2010. PMID: 20104440 Review. German.
Therefore it is common practice in many ICUs to perform routine surveillance cultures of lower respiratory tract samples so that when pneumonia occurs, the empiric antibiotic regime can be based on the pathogens previously identified in surveillance cultur …

Can routine surveillance samples from tracheal aspirate predict bacterial flora in cases of ventilator-associated pneumonia?
Lampati L, Maggioni E, Langer M, Malacarne P, Mozzo R, Pesenti A, Fumagalli R. Lampati L, et al. Minerva Anestesiol. 2009 Oct;75(10):555-62. Epub 2009 May 21. Minerva Anestesiol. 2009. PMID: 19461563 Free article.
The microbiological findings from TA surveillance cultures done in the eight days before suspicion of VAP were compared to those isolated from the positive diagnostic samples done for late onset VAP (after more than four days of mechanical ventilation). ...
