Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To determine the association between ICU air quality (measured by PM1.0, PM3.0, PM10 levels, Temperature, Relative humidity and microbiological air sampling) and the incidence of ventilator-associated events (VAEs) in mechanically ventilated adult ICU patients.Timepoint: Outcome will be assessed at baseline, at 48 hours and at 4 days—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1)To evaluate temporal variations in ICU air quality & variation in VAE incidence. 2)To assess the impact of air quality parameters on clinical outcomes such as ventilator duration, ICU length of stay & ICU mortalityTimepoint: at baseline, at 48 hours & at 4 days—
