Clinical characteristics and outcomes of neonates with polymicrobial ventilator-associated pneumonia in the intensive care unit

Abstract Background Ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) caused by more than one microorganisms is not uncommon and may be potentially challenging, but the relevant data is scarce in ventilated neonates. We aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of polymicrobial VAP in the n...
