    It was a great review! I would have loved some more in depth examination if antibiotic approaches and troubleshooting (what was briefly noted at the end of the video on the 2016 guidelines update). Eg: inhaled tobra, esbl, CRE etc Thanks

    As usual MedCram lectures are to the point and clarifying difficult themes. However this VAP course was studded with lot of statistics which may be difficult to remember in the long run.
