Abstract：Obj ective:To analyze the influencing factors of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP ),so as to provide evidences for making corresponding preventions.Methods:Logistic regression was used for analysis on the related influencing factors of 5 3 VAP patients in ICU in a three grade class A hospital from Jan 2011 to Jun 2013.Results:The incidence of VAP was 1 2 .7%.Gram negative bacterias were the main pathogen in infection.Logistic regression analysis showed that the VAP related factors included the number of basic disease (OR=7.22, P<0.01),duration of MV (OR=10.37,P<0.001),continuous aspi-ration of subglottic secretion (OR=0.01,P<0.001)and aspiration (OR=8.36,P<0.05).Conclusion:For the high risk groups with VAP risk factors in ICU patients,the monitoring and controlling of VAP should be enhanced.Some appropriate measures should be taken to prevent the occurrence of VAP.
