Chamberlain College of Nursing NR439 PPE Worksheet Name:Edgar Benavidez Date:January 24th, 2021 Problem/PICOT/Evidence Search (PPE) Worksheet Criteria Ventilator Associated Pneumonia, also known as VAP, is one of the most common hospital acquired infections in a hospital for ventilated patients that also carries a high death rate (Parisi, 2016). Patients who are on a ventilator are already in critical condition and getting something such as ventilator assisted pneumonia can not only be detrimental to the patients' health but can also cost the facility thousands of dol- lars in treatment. I chose this issue due to how much it affects ventilated patients and how easily can be prevented by implementing the proper treatment. By insti- tuting strict guidelines for ventilated patients, efficiently and effectively, preventing complications associated with VAP’s can be cost effective and lower incidents of pneumonia in vented patients (Parisi, 2016).
