Risk factors of treatment failure in community acquired pneumonia: implications for disease outcome.
BACKGROUND An inadequate response to initial empirical treatment of community acquired pneumonia (CAP) represents a challenge for clinicians and requires early identification and intervention. A study was undertaken to quantify the incidence of failure of empirical treatment in CAP, to identify risk factors for treatment failure, and to determine the implications of treatment failure on the out...
متن کاملHyperglycemia and Red Cell Distribution Width for Prediction of Mortality in Preschool Children with Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP)
Background Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a major infectious cause of mortality in preschool children especially in developing countries. Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) has been associated with poor outcomes of CAP. We aimed to determine whether admission stress hyperglycemia and RDW can predict mortality in preschool children with CAP for early identification of patients at risk of ...

متن کاملOutcome of community-acquired pneumonia: influence of age, residence status and antimicrobial treatment.
Community-acquired pneumonia remains a major cause of mortality in developed countries. There is much discrepancy in the literature regarding factors influencing the outcome in the elderly population. Data were derived from a multicentre prospective study initiated by the German Competence Network for Community-Acquired Pneumonia. Patients with community-acquired pneumonia (n = 2,647; 1,298 age...
متن کاملManagement-based risk prediction in community-acquired pneumonia by scores and biomarkers.
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) represents a major life-threatening infection, but disease course and outcome is highly variable. Major drivers of prognosis are respiratory failure, sepsis-related organ dysfunction and unstable comorbidities. Current risk stratification tools have been primarily designed to predict mortality and identify low risk patients potentially suitable for ambulatory ...
