[Treating bronchoscopy at ventilator-associated pneumonia in critically ill patients]
Abstract:
On the material, based on the experimental treatment of broncho-pulmonary derangements, including ventilator-associated pneumonias, at 105 critically ill patients, the authors recommend methods of prophylaxis and treatment of these types of pathologies, which are based on the suction fibrobronchoscopy with the use of different suction mixtures. The more satisfying evolvement of pathological processes, decrease of the expressing of the degree of clinical appearance and intoxication, the indisputable improvement of dynamics of the condition of the patient and subsidence of the average continuation of treatment prove the advantage of this method. The important economical effect is also achieved with the subsidence of the price of daybeds, decrease of the expenses of the diagnostics and cures. The achieved results give us the permission to recommend the widespread use of the treating suction fibrobronchoscopy when treating patients with acute diseases of lungs, advantages at VAP. The expressed efficiency, reliability and the important economical effect are the base priorities of this method.

Pneumonia IV: Management
Bacterial Pneumonia Treatment
For bacterial pneumonia, antibiotics serve as the cornerstone of therapy. Initial treatment often begins with empirical antibiotics, tailored to the anticipated causative organism and adjusted based on culture results. Key antibiotic choices include:
Acute Respiratory Failure-V
Ensure that patients are monitored continuously for their response to therapy, including changes in...
Pneumonia V: Nursing management and Prevention
The nurse must practice strict medical asepsis and adhere to infection control guidelines to minimize healthcare-associated infections.
Enhance airway patency
Position the patient correctly to facilitate drainage of the affected lung segments. Manual or mechanical percussion and vibration can also be employed.
