Nosocomial pneumonia or hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is defined as pneumonia that occurs 48 hours or more after hospital admission and is not present at the admission time. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) represents a significant subset of HAP occurring in intensive care units (ICUs). This activity reviews the cause, pathophysiology, and presentation of nosocomial pneumonia and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in its management.
