Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate whether there is a relationship between microaspiration of secretions and ventilator-associated events (VAE) in intubated patients.
  • Data was collected from 261 patients, with only 31 developing VAE; statistical analysis found no significant links between microaspiration and VAE incidence.
  • The findings suggest that measuring microaspiration in critically ill intubated patients may not be a reliable method for predicting VAE outcomes.

Previous studies have identified cirrhosis as a risk factor for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). The aim of our study was to determine the relationship between cirrhosis and abundant gastric-content microaspiration in intubated critically ill patients. We performed a matched cohort study using data from three randomized controlled trials on abundant microaspiration in patients under mechanical ventilation.

Aims: To estimate the effect of prophylactic angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) on survival in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).

Methods And Results: We analysed the data from the French multicentre DMD Heart Registry (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03443115).

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate the risk of microaspiration in critically ill patients with COPD who are on invasive mechanical ventilation.
  • The analysis included 515 patients, revealing no significant difference in microaspiration rates between those with COPD and those without.
  • The findings suggest that having COPD does not increase the risk of abundant microaspiration in these patients, nor does it impact other clinical outcomes like ICU stay or mortality.
