Item Perfil clínico-epidemiológico e microbiológico das pneumonias associadas à ventilação mecânica na unidade de terapia intensiva de hospital universitário do sertão do Pernambuco(2026-05-21) Pinto, João Pedro de Carvalho; Naue, Carine Rosa; Aquino, Samuel Ricarte deBackground: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a common healthcare-associated infection in intensive care units, associated with increased morbidity and mortality, prolonged hospital stay, and higher healthcare costs. Understanding the clinical, epidemiological, and microbiological profile of affected patients is essential to guide prevention and treatment strategies.Objective: To describe the clinical, epidemiological, and microbiological profile of patients diagnosed with VAP in the intensive care unit of a university hospital in the São Francisco Valley. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, analytical, and retrospective study including 107 patients diagnosed with VAP between January 2023 and July 2025 at the University Hospital of the Federal University of Vale do São Francisco (HU-UNIVASF). Sociodemographic, clinical, microbiological, and outcome data were collected from electronic medical records. Continuous variables were expressed as mean and standard deviation, while categorical variables were presented as absolute and relative frequencies. Statistical analysis was performed using Student’s t-test and the chi-square test. Results: A predominance of male patients (75.7%) was observed, with a mean age of 47.8 ± 19.6 years. The main causes of admission were trauma-related conditions, particularly traumatic brain injury (53.7%) and polytrauma from traffic accidents (28.0%). Microbiological analysis showed a predominance of Gram-negative bacteria (76.4%), with Acinetobacter baumannii being the most frequent pathogen (40.2%), followed by Staphylococcus aureus (21.5%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (17.8%), and Klebsiella pneumoniae (13.1%). The mean hospital length of stay was 49.1 days, and the mean duration of mechanical ventilation was 21.3 days. The mortality rate was 28%, with higher mean age among non-survivors compared to survivors (56.9 ± 21.3 vs. 43.5 ± 18.4 years; p = 0.012). Conclusion: VAP predominantly affected male patients with trauma-related conditions, especially traumatic brain injury and polytrauma, and was associated with a predominance of Gram-negative pathogens, high mortality, and prolonged hospitalization and mechanical ventilation. Higher CPIS scores were not associated with worse outcomes.
