Trial Outcomes & Findings for Duration of Antibiotic Treatment for Early VAP (DATE) Trial (NCT NCT01994980)

NCT ID: NCT01994980

Last Updated: 2023-01-10

Results Overview

Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score (CPIS) score. Scales of this score include Temperature, Blood Leukocytes, Tracheal Secretions, Oxygenation, Pulmonary Radiography, and Culture of Tracheal Aspirate. Each scale can have sub-scores ranging from 0-2, with a total CPIS score ranging from 0-12. In this outcome measure, higher scores mean worse functioning and risk for worse outcomes. Scores for the patients analyzed on this outcome measure were taken daily for 28 days and then averaged across that time point.
