Question 24/73

There are four cases of ventilator-associated pneumonia in a surgical intensive care unit with a total of 200 ventilator days and a census of 12 patients. Which of the following BEST expresses how this should be reported?

A. Ventilator-associated pneumonia rate of 2%

B. 20 ventilator-associated pneumonia cases/1000 ventilator days

C. Postoperative pneumonia rate of 6% in SICU patients

D. More information is needed regarding ventilator days per patient

Correct Answer: B

The standard way to report ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) rates is:
A white paper with black text AI-generated content may be incorrect.

Why the Other Options Are Incorrect?
* A. Ventilator-associated pneumonia rate of 2% - This does not use the correct denominator (ventilator days).
* C. Postoperative pneumonia rate of 6% in SICU patients - Not relevant, as the data focuses on VAP, not postoperative pneumonia.
* D. More information is needed regarding ventilator days per patient - The total ventilator days are already provided, so no additional data is required.
CBIC Infection Control Reference
APIC and NHSN recommend reporting VAP rates as cases per 1,000 ventilator days.
