Resumo
Given the potential for morbidity and mortality of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), the
profile of these infections in adult intensive care units was evaluated in the city of Goiânia. Data
were collected from a secondary base in the Department of Prevention and Control of Infection
in Health Services, of the Municipal Health Department of Goiânia, from 2014 to 2016, in
private (82.7%), public (17.2%), and philanthropic (6.0%) health care services. The rate of use
of mechanical ventilation did not change significantly over the three years (32.6%). However,
there was a decrease in the mean of VAP incidence density, and in 2016 there was a reduction
of 7% in the 90th percentile. These reductions highlight the benefit of the implementation and
adherence to bundles by the multidisciplinary team.
