Summary
Antimicrobial treatment could be beneficial in patients with ventilator-associated
tracheobronchitis (VAT). The hypothesis of this study is that antibiotic treatment for VAT (3
or 7 days), compared with no antibiotic treatment, would reduce the incidence of transition
from VAT to ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP).
