Study Design: Cross sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Shifa International Hospital Islamabad, from Apr 2016 to Aug 2016. Material and Methods: One hundred and forty eight patients (134 receiving PPI’s and 14 not receiving) in MICU of Shifa International Hospital were included in this study. Hospital acquired pneumonia was defined as New chest infiltrates developing within 48 hours of admission, Fever of greater than 38 degrees Celsius and total leucocyte count of more than 11000 or less than 3500. In all patients tracheal cultures were followed at 24 and 48 hours and microbiologic spectrum was defined. Results: Out of 148 patients admitted to ICU during the study period, 45 patients (33.6 percent) developed HAP in PPI group compared to 1 in non PPI group. The initial tracheal cultures at admission were negative. Out of the 45 patients who fulfilled criteria for HAP 40 patients (89%) had positive tracheal cultures for gram negative bacteria which included Acinetobacter, Klebsiella and Escheria species. The cultures remained negative for 5 patients (11%) with HAP. The 89 patients who didn’t fulfill the criteria for HAP, 25 patients still had positive tracheal cultures but more than fifty percent of the cultures yielded Candida Albicans. In the non PPI group only 1 patient developed HAP. HAP incidence was PPI group (p 0.042). Conclusion: Gram negative bacteria was prevailed as the causative organism in patients who developed hospital acquired pneumonia (89 percent) and receiving proton pump inhibitors in medical intensive care unit with greater number incidence of HAP in PPI group.Aaqib Jahangir KhanAftab AkhtarArmy Medical College Rawalpindiarticlehospital acquired pneumoniaproton pump inhibitorsstress ulcer prophylaxisMedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENPakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal, Vol 68, Iss 5, Pp 1318-1322 (2018)
