Brief Summary
Secondary infections remain a major cause of mortality in critically ill patients, mainly because of high prevalence of multidrug-resistant microorganisms. Therefore strategies aimed to reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumoniae (VAP) and bloodstream infections are of utmost important. There is robust data on selective digestive decontamination (SDD) efficacy in reduction of secondary infections in intensive care units (ICU) with low rates of antibacterial resistance. However the data received from hospitals with moderate-to-high rates of resistance is equivocal. This as an interventional parallel open-label study investigating the effect of selective digestive decontamination on the rates of ventilator-associated pneumonia in critically ill patients admitted to the ICU with high prevalence of drug-resistant bacteria. Secondary outcomes include rates of bloodstream infections, mortality, duration of mechanical ventilation, duration of ICU stay, resistance selection and overall antibiotic consumption.

Study Arms (2)
Control group: standard care
NO INTERVENTIONPatients in the standard care group will be prospectively evaluated to determine pre-defined clinical outcomes.
Selective digestive decontamination group
EXPERIMENTAL1. Oral paste (0,5 g) containing 10 mg of polymyxin B, 10 mg of gentamycin and 150 mg of amphotericine B q6h 2. In the NGT 10 ml of suspension containing 100 mg of polymyxin B, 80 mg of gentamycin, 350 mg of amphotericine B and 500 mg of vancomycin q6h 3. A 3-day course of intravenous cefotaxime 1 g q6h/ceftriaxone 1 qd
Interventions
The oral paste will be applied topically on the oropharyngeal mucosa q6h.
The suspension will be administered through the nasogastric tube q6h.
Patients who do not receive systemic antibiotics for other reasons will get a short course of systemic antibiotic
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients with expected MV for more than 24 hours
You may not qualify if:
- Moribund condition and expected death within 24 hours
- Malignancy (excluding primary CNS tumors)
- Patients transferred from other hospitals who were mechanically ventilated for more than 24 hours (including NIV)
