RESUMEN

La neumonía asociada a la ventilación mecánica condiciona mayor morbilidad y mortalidad en los pacientes críticamente enfermos. Existen deficiencias en las actuales definiciones y criterios diagnósticos, lo que dificulta el establecimiento de un diagnóstico de certeza. En este artículo analizamos estas deficiencias y proponemos su posible solución.
