Pneumonias HAP/HCAP/VAP Salim A Baharoon MD Infectious Disease / Critical Care King Saud Bin Abdulaziz University Riyadh
Definitions • HAP: Pneumonia that occurs 48 hours or more after admission and did not appear to be incubating at the time of admition. • Early and Late onset • VAP: A type of HAP acquired at 48-72 hours after intubation. • Early and Late onset • HCAP: Non hospital patient with healthcare contact • IV therapy, wound care, chemotherapy within 30 days • Nursing home or long term care facility (Nursing Home Pneumonia) • Hospitalization >2 days ore more in past 90 days • Attendance at hospital or HD within 30 days • Family member with a MDR pathogen ATS/IDSA Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2005;171: 388-416
Diagnosis • Progressive infiltrate on lung imaging and clinical characteristics such as: • Fever • Purulent sputum • Leukocytosis • Decline in oxygenation • Radiographic findings plus two of the clinical findings. • 69% sensitivity and 75% specificity for pneumonia (autopsy as reference)
Blood cultures, limited role, sensitivity is only 8% to 20% Sputum neither sensitive, nor specific Tracheo-bronchial aspirates- high sensitivity does not differentiate between pathogen and colonizer Quantitative cultures increase specificity of the diagnosis of HAP. BAL, PSB’s do not differ from less invasive tests in terms of sensitivity, specificity or, more importantly, morbidity and mortality. Negative lower respiratory tract cultures can be used to stop antibiotic therapy in a patient who has had cultures obtained in the absence of an antibiotic change in the past 72 hours. Role of rapid diagnostic test (PCR) (Multiplex PCR) Imperfect diagnostic tests
Epidemiology Study of 4543 pts. with Culture Positive Pneumonia: Incidence (%) • HAP is the second most common nosocomial infection in the US • HAP increased hospital stay by an average of 7-9 days per patient • Estimated occurrence of 5-10 cases per 1,000 hospital admissions • 0.88 per 1000 patients admission in Taif (1999-2003) • 0.5 per 1000 patient days of admission in Iran • HAP accounts for up to 25% of all ICU infections and more than 50% of antibiotics prescribed Kolle MH, et al. Epidemiology and outcomes of healthcare associated pneumonia: results from a large US database of culture positive pneumonia. Chest 2005;128:3854 62
Outcome P<.0001 • HAP-associated mortality remains the leading cause of death among hospital-acquired infections • Crude mortality of HAP is 30-70% • Attributable mortality is 20-50% • Worse outcomes in patients with bacteremia, medical rather than surgical illness, ineffective and late antibiotic therapy.

Etiology • Aerobic gram-negative bacteria: • P. aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Klebsiellapneumoniae, and Acinetobacter species • Gram-positive cocci • S. pneumonia. • H. influenzae • Staphylococcus aureus (50% in ICU due to MRSA) • More common in patients with diabetes mellitus, head trauma and those hospitalized in the ICU. • Oropharyngeal commensals (viridans group streptococci, coag-negative Staph, Neisseria species and Corynebacterium) may be relevant in mostly immunocompromised patients.
Results, Time of Infection • HAP: • Early onset (0-4 days): S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae • Late onset (5+ days): oxacillin resistant S. aureus, P. aeruginosa • VAP: • Early onset (0-4 days): oxacillin susceptible S. aureus, S. pneumoniae, Hemophilus sp. • Late onset (5+ days): Acinetobacter sp. and S. maltophilia

Etiology • Fungal pathogens: most common is Candida and Aspergillus • Most commonly in organ transplant or immunocompromised, neutropenic patients. • Aspergillus- contaminated air ducts or local construction. • Candida- common airway colonizer and rarely requires treatment.
Etiology • Viral Pathogens: low incidence in immunocompetent hosts. • Influenza A is the most common viral cause of HAP and HCAP in adults. • Risk for secondary bacterial infection “super-infection” • Streptococcus, H. influenza, Group A Streptococcus, S. aureus
MDR risk factors • Host risk factors for infection with MDR pathogens include: • Treatment with antibiotics within the preceding 90 days. • Current hospitalization of >4 days • High frequency of antibiotic resistance in the community or hospital unit • Immunosuppressive disease and/or therapy • Hospitalization for >/= 2 days within the last 90 days • Severe illness • Antibiotic therapy in the past 6 months • Poor functional status
Pathogenesis • Number and virulence of organisms entering the lower respiratory tract and response of the host. • microaspiration of organisms which have colonized the upper respiratory/gastrointestinal tract • Hospitalized patients tend to become colonized with organisms in the hospital environment within 48 hours. • Common mechanisms include: mechanical ventilation, routine nursing care, lack of hand washing of all hospital personnel. • Disease state also plays a role: alteration in gastric pH due to illness, certain medications, malnutrition and supplemental feedings.

In addition, a laminated sign was created to place in the patient room
Summary • HAP is a leading infection among all hospital acquired infections • HAP is associated with high mortality, long hospital stay, high economic burden • HAP is still diagnosed with relatively non specific methods • HAP etiology vary between geographical locations and each region should have real-time data • Treatment of MDR organism is posing a very significant problem • Prevention of HAP through established protocols
Thank you Questions?
Modifiable Risk Factors: Intubation and Mechanical Ventilation • Intubation and mechanical ventilation increase the risk of HAP 6-21 fold. • NIPPV, data shows use to avoid reintubation may be associated with more incidence of HAP. • Sedation protocols to accelerate ventilator weaning. • Reintubation increases the risk of VAP • Oral gastric and tracheal tubes rather than nasal may reduce incidence of sinusitis and subsequent lower respiratory tract infection (HAP). • Limiting use of sedative and paralytic agents that depress cough. • Keep endotracheal cuff to >20 cm H2O
Modifiable Risk Factors • Strict infection control • Alcohol-based hand disinfection • Microbiologic surveillance with timely data on local MDR pathogens • Removal of invasive devices • Programs to reduce or alter antibiotic-prescribing practices
Modifiable Risk Factors: Modulation of Colonization: Oral Antiseptics and Antibiotics • Oropharyngeal colonization is an independent risk factor for ICU-acquired HAP by enteric gram-negative bacteria and P. aeruginosa • Oral antiseptic chlorhexidine significantly reduced rates of nosocomial infection in post-operative patients and is routinely used in the ICU as part of “oral care”. • Selective decontamination fo the digestive tract (SDD): using non-absorbable antibiotics either orally or through GT has shown benefit in reducing HAP/VAP. However not widely used in the US due to risk for drug resistance.
MDR: Stress Bleeding Prophylaxis, Transfusion, and Glucose Control • H2 blockers have shown an increased risk for VAP, risk vs. benefit for stress bleeding should be considered • Multiple studies have identified allogeneic blood products as a risk factor for post-operative pneumonia, and the time length of blood storage as another risk factor. Blood transfusion is usually limited to Hb <7 in the patient who has no active bleeding. • Hyperglycemia is an additional risk for blood stream infection, increased duration of mechanical ventilation increasing risk for HAP/VAP.
Four Major Principles Underlie the Management • Avoid untreated or inadequately treated HAP, VAP or HCAP, failure to do so is a consistent factor associated with increased mortality. • Recognize the variability of bacteriology from one hospital to another, one department from another and one time period to another. • Avoid the overuse of antibiotics by focusing on accurate diagnosis, tailoring therapy and limit duration of therapy to the minimal effective period. • Apply prevention strategies aimed at modifiable risk factors.
VAP vs. HAP Flora • Study of VAP and HAP pathogens for purposes of optimizing therapy • University of North Carolina Hospitals study conducted system wide, 2000-2003 • Used definitions as described by ATS • Did not include CAP or HCAP • Specimens obtained via bronchoscopy, expectorated sputum, or tracheal aspirates Weber DJ, et al.
