The fact that the type and dose of IV antibiotic was different in all the aforementioned studies suggests that the positive effect of IV antibiotic prophylaxis depends more on immediate administration upon intubation &#8211; to counteract bacterial inoculum in the upper airways &#8211; than on antibiotic type and dose&#46; This preventive measure may now be obsolete due to changes in the colonizing microorganisms of the population or due to a multifactorial behaviour in VAP development in coma patients&#46;

Furthermore&#44; high oxygen tension in ventilated patients is enough to kill anaerobes and &#8211; in this situation of new microbiology patterns of VAP &#8211; we and others propose the use of other antibiotics rather than cefuroxime for prophylaxis and for treatment of aspiration pneumonia&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a> which is the pathogenic basis of EO-VAP in intubated patients with altered level of consciousness&#46;</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Consequently&#44;

the question that we make is&#58; where are we now&#63; The answer is simple&#46; Since the single RCT study performed twenty years ago&#44; the current clinical practice has changed and there is no uniform management of intubated patients with coma&#46; The fact that the type and dose of IV antibiotic was different in all the aforementioned studies suggests that the positive effect of IV antibiotic prophylaxis depends more on immediate administration upon intubation &#8211; to counteract bacterial inoculum in the upper airways &#8211; than on antibiotic type and dose&#46; This preventive measure may now be obsolete due to changes in the colonizing microorganisms of the population or due to a multifactorial behaviour in VAP development in coma patients&#46; It is surprising that&#44; throughout all these years&#44; no research has been focused on this hypothesis and tested this or any other antibiotic using a large randomized clinical trial&#46;</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0020">New strategies for future research in antibiotic prophylaxis against VAP</span><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Patients with structural coma&#44; usually due to traumatic head injury&#44; are nearly always intubated in emergency conditions outside the hospital&#44; where the lack of aseptic conditions makes it easier for microorganisms to enter the respiratory tract&#46; In the initial study&#44; trachea colonization within 24<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>h of intubation by &#8220;community microorganisms&#8221; was observed to be a risk factor for EO-VAP development in patients with head trauma&#46; Due to this fact&#44; in the last years an increase in the etiologic cause of EO-VAP has been observed due to enteric bacteria from gastrointestinal microbiota&#44; commonly resistant to cefuroxime or&#47;and amoxicillin-clavulanic acid&#46; Furthermore&#44; high oxygen tension in ventilated patients is enough to kill anaerobes and &#8211; in this situation of new microbiology patterns of VAP &#8211; we and others propose the use of other antibiotics rather than cefuroxime for prophylaxis and for treatment of aspiration pneumonia&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a> which is the pathogenic basis of EO-VAP in intubated patients with altered level of consciousness&#46;</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Consequently&#44;

However&#44; the effect of this prophylactic measure on the development of bacterial resistance must always be monitored periodically to detect prophilaxis-related bacterial resistance if its use is not appropriate&#46;
