CHEST Crit Care
December 2024
Section of Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine, New Haven, CT.
Background: A recent international consensus conference called for the development of risk prediction models to identify ICU survivors at increased risk of each of the post-ICU syndrome domains. We previously developed and validated a risk prediction tool for functional impairment after ICU admission among older adults.
Research Question: In this pilot study, we assessed the feasibility of administering the risk prediction tool in the hospital to older adults who had just survived critical illness.

Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) rates are higher in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) than in high-income countries (HICs).
Research Question: Could differences in ventilator bundle adherence, ventilation practices, and critical care staffing be driving variations in VAP risk between LMICs and HICs?
Study Design And Methods: This secondary analysis of the multicenter, international CERTAIN study included mechanically ventilated patients at risk for VAP from eleven LMICs and five HICs. We included oral care, head-of-bed elevation, spontaneous breathing assessments, and sedation breaks in the ventilator bundle.
