Abstract

Objective: To analyze the role of multiplex real-time PCR in monitoring treatment of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP). Patients and methods: 242 patients ≥ 18 years with suspected VAP were randomly divided into 2 groups: control group in whom sputum routine culture, routine bronchial fluid was carried out as usual and study group in whom multiplex real-time PCR was performed to guide the antibiotic treament. Results: The rate of appropriate antibiotic used in the study group was 89/121 (73.6%) patients, control group 59/121 (48.8%) patients with p< 0.05. The duration of mechanical ventilation; the length in  ICU stay and the the length of hospital stay in study group shorter than that in control group with statistically significant (p<0.05). The overall mortality rate in the study group was 42/121 (34.7%) patients, the control group was 59/121 (48.8%) patients with p=0.022. There was no statistically significant difference in mortality due to VAP in the study group 26/121 (21.5%) patients and in the control group 36/121 (39.8%) patients with p=0.141. It is necessary to apply multiplex realtime PCR to at least 6 patients to reduce one patient's death due to VAP. Conclusions: Using multiplex real-time PCR results to treat VAP increase the use of appropriate antibiotics; reduce length in  ICU stay and the the length of hospital stay.
