Mechanical Ventilation Alters the Development of Staphylococcus aureus Pneumonia in Rabbit.

Mechanical Ventilation Alters the Development of Staphylococcus aureus Pneumonia in Rabbit.

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is common during mechanical ventilation (MV). Beside obvious deleterious effects on muco-ciliary clearance, MV could adversely shift the host immune response towards a pro-inflammatory pattern through toll-like receptor (TLRs) up-regulation.
