background ventilator- associated pneumonia (vap) continues to complicate the course of 8-28 % patients receiving mechanical ventilation. the mortality rate for vap is high, ranges from 24-50% and can reach 76% in some specific settings or when lung infection is caused by high risk pathogens. the etiologic agents widely differ according to the population of patients in an intensive care unit, d...

background since adenoids may act as a reservoir for bacteria, they can cause ear infection, recurrent otitis and recurrent adenotonsillitis. therefore, adenotonsillectomy is an efficient method for reducing the number and severity of subsequent infections. objectives this study aimed to determine the chlamydophila pneumonia infection by serological tests and performing pcr in the adenoid tissu...
background: ventilator-associated pneumonia (vap) is the most prevalent and lethal form of nosocomial infections in the icu and oral disinfection is a nursing measure to prevent this condition. aim: this study aimed to evaluate the effect of oronasal versus oral disinfections with chlorhexidine on the clinical criteria for diagnosis of vap. method: this randomized clinical trial was conducted o...
background following coronary artery bypass graft (cabg), patients are at high risk (3.2%-8.3%) for developing hospital-acquired pneumonia (hap) with mortality rate of 24% to 50%. some of routine features in patients undergoing cabg are similar to clinical criteria of center of disease control (cdc) for diagnosis of pneumonia. this may lead to over-diagnosis of pneumonia in these patients. obje...
Pneumonia is the most common fatal respiratory infection. More than 2 million children under the age of 5 die from pneumonia every year and about 70-75% of these deaths occur in infants. According to previous studies, mothers’ insufficient knowledge about pneumonia and lack of necessary care may worsen the disease in their infants. Therefore, the present clinical trial study was carried out...
BACKGROUND Pneumonia is a leading cause of hospitalization and death among children in Africa. We describe the clinical presentation of severe pneumonia among hospitalized children in a malaria endemic area with a high prevalence of HIV infection. METHODS As part of a 2-year prospective study of radiologically confirmed pneumonia, chest radiographs, malaria parasite counts and bacterial blood...
It is not known whether rainfall increases the risk of sporadic cases of Legionella pneumonia. We sought to test this hypothesis in a prospective observational cohort study of non-immunosuppressed adults hospitalized for community-acquired pneumonia (1995-2011). Cases with Legionella pneumonia were compared with those with non-Legionella pneumonia. Using daily rainfall data obtained from the re...
Background and Objective: To evaluate extended spectrum betalactamase (ESBL) positive strains of Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli in positive bacterial cultures. Materials and Methods: In this analytical cross-sectional study, between March 2006 and March 2007, 170 bacterial isolates including 133 cases of E. coli and 37cases of K. pneumonia were...
BACKGROUND Pneumococcal pneumonia is the most frequent form of pneumonia. We herein assessed the effectiveness of the 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) in the prevention of pneumonia overall in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients at risk for infections. We hypothesized that PPSV23 vaccination is superior in preventing pneumococcal pneumonia compared with placebo in RA patien...
