Rapid diagnosis and appropriate empirical antimicrobial therapy before the availability of conventional microbiological results is of pivotal importance for the clinical outcome of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). We evaluated the VAPChip, a novel, closed cartridge molecular tool aiming to identify directly from clinical samples and within a working day the principal bacteria causative of VAP as well as clinically relevant β-lactam resistance genes. ; Journal Article ; Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't ; Validation Studies ; SCOPUS: ar.j ; info:eu-repo/semantics/published
