Methods
death, PA-VAP
Patients with PA-VAP randomized in the iDIAPASON trial (short-duration—8 days vs. long-duration—15 days) and who received appropriate antibiotic therapy were eligible in the present study. The main objective is to compare mortality at day 90 according to the antibiotic therapy received by the patient: monotherapy versus combination therapy. The primary outcome was the mortality rate at day 90. The primary outcome was compared between groups using a Chi-square test. Time from appropriate antibiotic therapy to death in ICU or to censure at day 90 was represented using Kaplan–Meier survival curves and compared between groups using a Log-rank test.
