DEFINITION
“An acute infection of the pulmonary parenchyma that is associated with at least some symptoms of acute infection, accompanied by an acute infiltrate on a chest radiograph (CXR), or auscultatory findings consistent with pneumonia (e.g. altered breath sounds, localised crackles) in a patient not hospitalised or residing in a long-term care facility for ≥14 days prior to the onset of symptoms.”

CAP – Bacteriology in Hospitalized Pts
Viral and bacterial co-infection occurs in 4–17% of cases of CAP .
In 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae were common co pathogens
![Page 12: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Causes vary according to the
patient population, host immune status,
and geographic region.
No cause is determined in about half of patients with
CAP.

• Onset: Acute (more common) or Subacute (suggestive of atypical pneumonia) General (Systemic) Manifestations: • fever, Approx 80% febrile ( be careful in elderly….)• myalgia • Tachycardia
Local (Pulmonary) Manifestations
• Productive cough, dyspnoea, pleuritic chest pain.• Bronchial breathing, Vocal resonance• RR>24 (45%-70%) ( most sensitive finding in older pts….) • Crackles on auscultation

• Extra- Pulmonary Manifestations in Atypical Pneumonia:• Erythema nodosum: in Psittacosis• Erythema Multiforme: in Mycoplasma pnemonia• Headache / mental confusion.• Abdminal pain / diarrhoea.• Relative bradycardiaNo clear constellation of signs and symptoms found to accurately predict
• Classic signs of consolidation occur in less than 25%• Multi-organ dysfunction or failure may occur depending on the type and severity of
pneumonia• Over 50% may also have non-respiratory symptoms and over a third may have no
systemic signs of infection

RADIOGRAPHS…
• Routine evaluation • To establish the diagnosis and to aid in differentiating CAP from
other causes of cough and fever, such as acute bronchitis.• Useful for suggesting the etiologic agent, prognosis,
alternative diagnoses, and associated conditions.
Rarely, the admission chest radiograph is clear, but thepatient’s toxic appearance suggests more than bronchitis.

• For patients who are hospitalized for suspected pneumonia but who have negative chest radiography findings,it may be reasonable to treat their condition presumptively with antibiotics and repeat the imaging in 24–48 h.
![Page 36: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• In this cohort of patients with severe CAP, radiologic progression of pulmonary infiltrates in the first 48 h is a significant adverse prognostic feature. In contrast, bacteremia does not affect outcomes

DIAGNOSTIC TESTING FOR MICROBIAL ETIOLOGY• Treatment is best when it is pathogen directed….
• Little consensus on practicality of achieving this goal due to controversies in the value of diagnostic tests

PSI versus CURB-65
• Meta-analysis by chalmers et al. Showed no difference in their ability to predict mortality
• PSI score was more sensitive than the CURB-65 score• PSI score better at identifying nonsevere CAP patients that may not need
hospital admission • helpful in situations where CAP mortality is high.

• Curb-65 more specific with a higher positive predictive value than the psi score• Correct identification of patients at higher risk, but a chance of mismanaging
high-risk patients as nonsevere CAP due to the low sensitivity• CURB-65 may help in situations where mortality is low and resources are
limited

CAP – Criteria for ICU Admission
![Page 59: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
• IDSA/ATS criteria had a higher sensitivity than the PSI and CURB-65/CRB-65 scores.
• Two major criteria are not always met by patients with severe disease on presentation.
• Patients without these major criteria are at high risk for clinical deterioration, needing icu care and death
• Presence of more than three minor criteria may be of value in predicting icu admission, prediction of 30-day mortality and need for mv/vasopressor support
![Page 60: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)

• SCAP has been shown to be superior to the modified ATS criteria and CURB-65, and similar to PSI for the identification of severe CAP
• The study by Brown et al. found that patients with severe CAP had a longer hospital length of stay and similar 30-day mortality when compared with other definitions for severe CAP

The CAP-PIRO score overlaps multiple variables involving the lung and other systemic organ dysfunctions, which is a concept already proposed by several investigators of severe CAP [5,9] . However, this score only predicts ICU mortality in CAP, and future prospective studies should determine the ability of this score to predict ICU admission.

• Substantive evidence for macrolides having an immunomodulating effect on the host immune response
• Most patients with community-acquired pneumonia and sepsis-related organ dysfunction have high systemic pneumococcal bacterial loads
• Suggests well-recognized anti-toxin effects of macrolides, even in macrolide-resistant organisms
• Neither fluroquinolones nor tetracyclines observed to have anti-pneumolysin effects in pneumococci
• odds ratios for death ranging from two to six times greater in non-macrolide-treated patients

TREATMENT FAILURE
![Page 89: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
What defines a treatment failure?
Clinical deterioration or a lack of response to empiric antimicrobial therapy within 3 days often indicates treatment failure, warranting thorough reassessment and additional investigations.
![Page 90: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
What defines a treatment failure?
• Majority of patients receiving appropriate therapy show a favorable clinical response within 72 hours.
• Initial antibiotic therapy should not be changed before 72 hours unless indicated by significant clinical worsening or microbiologic data.
• Advanced age, alcoholism, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, have been associated with delayed resolution despite appropriate treatment.
![Page 91: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
POTENTIAL REASONS WHY A PATIENT MAY NOT RESPOND FAVORABLY TO EMPIRIC THERAPY.
![Page 92: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
Inappropriate antimicrobial therapy
• Is the dosing adequate?• Are all potential bacterial pathogens covered by the empiric regimen?• Are the organisms resistant or has a previously sensitive pathogen
developed resistance?• Is the pathogen bacterial? Consider other pathogens to include viruses,
endemic fungi, and mycobacteria.• Is the host immunocompromised and at risk for opportunistic infections?• Is the disease infectious? • Has the patient been misdiagnosed?
![Page 93: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Complications
a. Has a lung abscess or empyema developed?b. Does the patient have acute respiratory distress syndrome ?c Have the bacteria seeded extrapulmonary sites (e.g. endocarditis, septic arthritis, meningitis)?d. Has the patient acquired a new nosocomial infection (e.g., urinary tract infection, central line infection, sinusitis)?
![Page 94: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/94.jpg)
How Should A Patient With Non resolving Pneumonia Be Evaluated?
• Review initial culture results and sensitivities • Collect additional lower respiratory tract and blood cultures. • Broadening empiric therapy may be indicated while awaiting results of
additional testing. • Repeated chest radiograph/consider ct scan at this time.• Additional history may reveal HIV risk factors, tick exposure, travel history,
or other diagnostic clues
• A thoracentesis of a pleural effusion can exclude a complicated effusion or empyema.

NONINFECTIOUS CAUSES…..
• ARDS• Traumatic pulmonary contusion • Pneumonitis resulting from connective tissue disease (e.g
Systemic lupus erythematosus) • Acute hypersensitivity pneumonitis• Drug-induced pneumonitis • Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (e.g., Goodpasture syndrome,
wegener granulomatosis, bronchiolitis obliterans) .

• Bronchoscopy has good diagnostic utility
• Send for quantitative bacterial cultures and sensitivities, as well as for stains and cultures of unusual organisms (mycobacteria, endemic fungi, and p. Jiroveci ).
• Trial of corticosteroids or a thoracoscopic or open lung biopsy
may be considered in the appropriate clinical setting.

• It remains uncertain why immunocompetent patients with bacterial community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) die, in spite of adequate antibiotics
• Patients with shock, acute renal failure and APACHE II score higher than 24 should be considered for inclusion in trials of adjunctive therapy in order to improve CAP survival.
![Page 100: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)
STEROIDS……An excessive release of circulating inflammatory cytokines can beharmful and cause pulmonary dysfunction.
Systemic corticosteroids have anti-inflammatory effects, attenuating the systemic inflammatory process in the disorder
Adjunct treatment with corticosteroids has been discussed since the 1950s
![Page 101: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
Significant reduction of in-hospital mortality in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia was noted testing a 7-day continuous infusion of hydrocortisone versus placebo.
Retrospective single-centre study6 ncluding 308 patients suggested that the use of corticosteroids was associated with decreased mortality
![Page 102: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Did not find any benefit of adjunct prednisolone, but an increased recurrence rate
Patients received intravenous dexamethasone over 4 days reported a significant reduction in length of hospital stay by 1 day

IMPROVING OUTCOMES………•Use validated severity score in determining the site of care. Little to choose between pneumonia scores………
•Empiric therapy should be consistent with local guidelines. take into account local differences in cause….
•A macrolide should be part of the empiric regime in hospitalized patients
•Antibiotics should be given as fast as possible, ideally within 4 h of presentation
![Page 106: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
• Ensure that the patient • Has adequate fluid resuscitation, • Electrolyte disturbances are being addressed,• Hyperglycemia is being corrected• Thrombosis prophylaxis is considered and• Myocardial ischemia is considered and prophylaxis considered if appropriate.
• Hypoxic patients with any risk factor for co2 retention should have this assessed and managed if present
• Patients should be encouraged to ambulate as early as possible
![Page 107: 1.community acquired pneumonia](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062502/589daab81a28ab21728b53b9/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
•Failure to clinically improve within 48 h should prompt early review of potential complications such as empyema.
•Protocol should be in place to switch from intravenous to oraltherapy at the earliest appropriate time point
•Given the long-term poorer outcomes in CAP survivors , cardiovascular risk factors should be assessed during admission and after discharge
