This is done to identify the possible reasons for the VAP and all aspects of the VAP bundle are reviewed at a SWOOP. We also often help to complete the SWOOP form template regarding the specific VAP criteria identified in the individual cases. We speak with the infection control nurse or even sometimes microbiologists to help clarify difficult cases. Laura has contributed to the VAP clinical practice guidelines being currently written. Laura has have assisted in writing and clarifying the wiki article VAP - Ventilator Associated Pneumonia and Central Line Related Blood stream Infection (CLR-BSI).
