Measure
Linezolid
Participants with diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) (subgroup of hospital-acquired pneumonia \[HAP\]) due to methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and who were treated with linezolid according to routine local care were observed retrospectively for up to 28 days after the diagnosis of VAP.
Vancomycin
Participants with diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) (subgroup of hospital-acquired pneumonia \[HAP\]) due to methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and who were treated with vancomycin according to routine local care were observed retrospectively for up to 28 days after the diagnosis of VAP.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 14 days after diagnosis with VAP or hospital discharge, whichever occurred first

Population: Analysis population included all participants who met the eligibility criteria for this study.

Clinical success was assessed as number of participants cured or improved. Cure = complete resolution of signs and symptoms of pneumonia; Improvement = partial resolution of signs and symptoms of pneumonia.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 28 days after diagnosis of VAP

Population: Data was not analyzed for this outcome because other reported measures (that is, duration of antimicrobial treatment, duration of mechanical ventilation, duration of ICU stay, duration of hospital stay) were considered to represent a more strict and useful reflection of resource utilization.
