Efficacy of comprehensive unit-based safety program to prevent ventilator associated-pneumonia for mechanically ventilated patients in China: A propensity-matched analysis.

Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most common healthcare-associated infection (HAI) in patients with mechanical ventilation. VAP is largely preventable, and a comprehensive unit-based safety program (CUSP) has effectively reduced HAI. In this study, we aim to comprehensively investigate the effect of implementing the CUSP in patients requiring mechanical ventilation.
