AHRQ Ventilator-Associated Event Data Collection Tool

Use this tool to track your progress in reducing ventilator-associated event (VAE) rates by using this information to calculate the incidence rate of VAEs as well as ventilator-associated complication (VAC) events, infection-related ventilator associated complication (IVAC) events, and possible ventilator-associated pneumonia (PVAP) events. Report the following occurrences within the selected month. Collect this data each month for all beds in your unit. The number of VAEs and total IVACs should be reported to the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN).
