Nosocomial pneumonia is associated with increases in health care costs, morbidity and mortality. Data from our study in Bach Mai Hospital in 90 patients admitted to intensive care units from 1999 to 2001 indicate that, approximately 86% of patients got nosocomial infections. Gram(-) organisms were predominant (76%) with P.aeruginosa 57.3%; S.aureus 10.7%; Enterobacter 7.7%; Acinetobacter 6.8%. Almost these gram(-) becterial isolates were sensitive to imipenem (95.7%) and amikacin (87.8%).

Thibeault C. Special Committee Report : Cabin Air Quality Aviat Space Environ Med 1997 ;68 : 80-2. Cabin Air Quality has generated considerable public and workers' concern and controversy in the last few years. To clarify the situation, AsMA requested the Passenger Health Subcommittee of the Air Transport Medicine Committee to review the situation and prepare a position statement. After identifying the various sources of confusion, we review the scientifically accepted facts In the different elements involved in Cabin Air Quality : pressurization, ventilation, contaminants, humidity and temperature. At the same time, we identify areas that need more research and make recommendations accordingly.

In this clinical trial, 60 patients who suffered from AFB positive infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis and being cured in consolidative chemotherapy in specialized hospitals, the age from 20 to 59 years old, not sexes distinguish. Kinds of ventilation: 93.33% of patients suffered from restrictive ventilation and the rate of mix ventilation was 6.67%, no participant was obstructive ventilation. Mean values of VC was 53.93%5.97; of Tiffeneau index 80.756.63%

The study was carried out on 2,483 subjects including 1453 male and 1030 female from 8 to 86 years old at various Northern provinces of Vietnam. These subjects were measured by modern lung ventilation function machine and were standardized before measuring. The linear equation of 14 parameters of lung ventilation function was built for each gender at the two groups of ages ≤25 and ≥26 years old. The values of our equation were lower than that of Quanjer’s. However, it wasn’t statistically different from that of other Vietnamese authors.

Clinical examination on 87 patients with chronic bronchitis at Vinh Tien - Vinh Bao - Hai Phong in 2003. Results showed that common clinical symptoms are cough and expectorate (100%), breath shortness (88.51%), normal thoracic cavity (63.21%), rales (100%). VC and FVC reduced dramatically (65.52%), FEV1 reduced significantly (71.27%), PEF reduced remarkly (74.72%)
