The effect of subglottic secretion drainage on the incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia
Background: Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) is an undesired side effect of mechanical ventilation in intensive care units (ICUs). Aim: We evaluated whether endotracheal tubes with subglottic secretion drainage (SSD) would reduce the incidence of VAP among patients undergoing mechanical ventila...
