The article discusses a research study on initiating interventions called a bundle practices concept to decrease ventilator-acquired pneumonia (VAP). The bundle concept includes interventions of increased mouth care to every two hours may decrease VAP and adding alarms to bed to alert nurses if the head of bed is below 30 degrees. The objective of the study was to develop a ventilator bundle and care practices for prevention and reduce the rates of VAP. It was developed by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement and the results found that critical-care nurses adherence to the bundle practices improved patient outcomes and reduced
