Implementation Of Ventilator Associated Events (VAE) Checklist Bundle To Decrease Ventilator Associated Pneumonia (VAP), Among Ventilated Patients In ICU KPJ Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital.
The objective of this research is to determine the effectiveness of ventilator associated events bundle checklist in preventing VAE occurrences and its complications.
To monitor VAE and VAP occurrences in ventilated patient in ICU.
VAEs is identified as any events that occur during ventilation including a decline in respiratory status following a period of stability or improvement on the ventilator, signs of infection or inflammation, and laboratory findings of respiratory infection.
Ventilator-associated event (VAE) checklist bundle is a new surveillance paradigm for monitoring complications in mechanically ventilated patients in intensive care units (ICUs).
A quasi-experimental study is conducted from January 2020 to December 2022 to determine the effectiveness of VAE bundle checklist in preventing VAE and its complications.
VAE causes complications such as prolonged intubation, prolonged length of stay in ICU, increased morbidity and mortality, and increased cost. The mortality rate from VAEs reported to CDC in 2014 was around 31% (Klompas, 2019).
