Study objective
Usage of SDD or SOD has been shown to reduce the incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) and to improve patient survival.
SDD and SOD were shown not to increase resistance of bacteria colonizing the digestive tract. It can not be excluded that antibiotics in the faeces suppress the growth of resistant bacteria during SDD, and that those resistant strains may quickly re-emerge after discontinuation of SDD. The rate of re-colonization with resistant enteral bacterial flora after cessation of SDD or SOD is currently unknown.
To determine factors associated with emergence and persistence of pathogenic Gram-negative bacteria and to assess the rate of return of resistant enteral bacterial flora after treatment with SDD or SOD a follow-up study will be performed of rectal cultures of patients after discharge from the ICU at determined intervals.
Study design
Days 0, 3, 6 and 10 after discharge form the ICU.
Intervention
Rectal cultures after usage of either Selective Decontamination of the Digestive tract (SDD) or Selective Oropharyngeal Decontamination (SOD).
