Introduction
Pneumonia is aninflammation of the lungsthat's usually caused byinfection with bacteria,
viruses, fungi or otherorganisms.Pneumonia is a particularconcern for older adultsand people with chronic

Etiology
Etiology is the study of the origins andassociated causes of a disease or condition.Pneumonia is a lung infection that can resultfrom:
bacteria fungus Inhalation of foreign substances viruses.
In most cases, the etiology of pneumonia involvesresearching bacterial infections.

MycoplasmaThis tiny organism causessigns and symptoms
similar to those of otherbacterial and viralinfections, althoughsymptoms appear moregradually and are often
mild and flu-like. This typeof pneumonia is oftencalled walkingpneumonia.

Physical examination
Use of the Stethoscope.Themost important diagnostic toolfor pneumonia is thestethoscope. Sounds in the
chest that may indicatepneumonia include: Rales, a bubbling or crackling
sound. Rhonchi, abnormal rumblings
indicating the presence ofthick fluid.
A dull thud obtained by
percussion.

Classification
Community-acquired pneumonia.Thisrefers to pneumonia you acquire in thecourse of your daily life at school,
work or the gym, for instance.Hospital-acquired (nosocomial)pneumonia.If you're hospitalized,you're at a higher risk of pneumonia,especially if you are on a mechanicalventilator, are in the intensive care unitor have a compromised immune system.

classificationAspiration pneumonia.This type of pneumonia occurswhen foreign matter is inhaled (aspirated) into yourlungs most often when the contents of yourstomach enter your lungs after you vomitPneumonia caused by opportunistic organisms.Thistype of pneumonia strikes people with compromisedimmune systems. Organisms that aren't harmful forhealthy people can be extremely dangerous for peoplewith AIDS, organ transplantation and otherconditions that impair the immune system.
Emerging pathogens.Outbreaks of the H5N1influenza (bird flu) virus and severe acute respiratorysyndrome (SARS) have caused serious, sometimesdeadly pneumonia

Risk Factor
In general, pneumonia is more likely toaffect those who have weaker immunesystems, especially adults over the age
of 65 and young children who do nothave fully developed immune systems.However, factors other than age canweaken people's immune systems and, asa result, put them at a higher risk ofdeveloping pneumonia.

ComplicationBacteria in the bloodstream.Pneumonia can turndeadly when inflammation from the disease fills theair sacs in your lungs and interferes with your abilityto breathe.Fluid accumulation and infection around the lungs.Sometimes fluid accumulates between the thin,transparent membrane (pleura) covering your lungsand the membrane that lines the inner surface of
your chest wall - a condition known as pleuraleffusion.
Lung abscess.A cavity containing pus (abscess) thatforms within the area affected by pneumonia isanother potential complication. Abscesses usually aretreated with antibiotics, but in rare cases they mayneed to be removed surgically.
