ICU Structure and Care Processes Explain Much of VAP and CLABSI Variation in Brazilian ICUs: Findings from a 50‑Unit IMPACTO‑MR Nested Cohort

ICU Structure and Care Processes Explain Much of VAP and CLABSI Variation in Brazilian ICUs: Findings from a 50‑Unit IMPACTO‑MR Nested Cohort

A 50‑ICU nested cohort from the IMPACTO‑MR platform links ICU-level structure and care processes to substantially different ventilator‑associated pneumonia and central line‑associated bloodstream infection rates, highlighting modifiable institutional targets in LMIC intensive care.
