‘Effectiveness of various sulbactam-based combination antibiotic therapy in the management of ventilator-associated pneumonia caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in a tertiary care Health centre’
Treatment with sulbactam, polymyxin B and minocycline combination antibiotic therapy was associated with significantly lower 28-day mortality. Moreover, the lower requirement of inotropes during treatment and a significant reduction in HsCRP level favours this combination antibiotic therapy in VAP caused by CRAB.
