Once the microorganism responsible for VAP has been isolated, antibiotic therapy can be adapted, based on deescalation, to reduce the emergence of resistant bacteria. Recent studies suggest that shorter antibiotic regimens reduce the emergence of antibiotic-resistant pathogens, cost and adverse events.
