Abstract (English)

VAP is burdened by increased morbidity and mortality. Due to lack of accurate diagnostic criteria we aim to develop different AI-algorithms using data from mechanical ventilators. VAP detection by accurate AI-algorithm has the potential to reduce morbidity, mortality, antibiotic overuse and costs.
