Site of Care

Significant impact on: Extent of laboratory evaluation Antimicrobial therapy Advantage of outpatient therapy: Cost Patient preference Faster convalescence and avoidance of nosocomial complications Decisions: Hospital vs outpatients Intensive care vs general wards

Diagnostic Testing

Clinical Diagnosis Cough, fever, sputum production, and pleuritic chest pain) Supported by imaging of the lung, usually by chest radiography.

Recommended Diagnostic Tests for Etiology
12
Urinary Antigen for S. pneumoniae (UrSp) Immunochromatographic test Sensitivity 50-80% (80-90% for bacteremia) Specificity ~ 90% In prospective study, of 269 patients with CAP and no pathogen identified, UrSp detected in 69 (27.5%) [Gutierrez et al. CID, 2003] False positive in children (oropharyngeal colonization); Streptococcus spp. Bacteremia Recommended as ancillary test (not as substitute for culture) Mandell L et al. Clin Inf Dis, 2003
13
Blood Cultures Blood cultures for all inpatients probably has some benefits, but limited and associated with increased cost and inappropriate antibiotic False positive > true pathogen in less ill patients Strategy which targets higher risk patients seems reasonable Limit number of blood cultures by Targeting the patients at highest risk of bacteremia (Mastesky, Am J Resp Crit Care Med, 2004) Targeting patients with highest risk of mortality (Fine, NEJM 1997) New CMS/JCAHO All patients with severe CAP (ICU) Optional for general ward patients (but not discouraged) If drawn in ER, before administration of antibiotics

Influenzae C. pneumoniaeH. InfluenzaeGram-negative bacilli Respiratory viruses 3 Legionella spp.S. aureus Aspiration Respiratory viruses 3 1 Based on collective data from recent studies 2 Excluding Pneumocystis spp. 3 Influenza A and B, adenovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, and parainfluenza. Adapted from File T. Lancet 2003
17
Risk factors for infection with b-lactam–resistant S. pneumoniae Age 65 years Previous b-lactam therapy within the previous 3 months Alcoholism Medical comorbidities Immunosuppressive illness or therapy Exposure to a child in a day care center
18
Treatment of Respiratory Tract Infections Empiric Historically ß-lactams have been the agent of choice Publication of treatment guidelines for CAP in the 1990s recommend macrolides for first-line use* Increase in macrolide use worldwide Also an increase in macrolide resistance Macrolide resistance is now more common in some areas than ß-lactam resistance *Niederman MS et al. Am Rev Resp Dis 1993;148:1418-1426
22
Antibiotic Choice: Outpatient PSI <91 (Class I, II, III) or CURB-65 score 0-1 Previously healthy and no risk factors for drug-resistant S. pneumoniae (DRSP) infection: A. A macrolide (azithromycin, clarithromycin, or erythromycin) (strong recommendation; level I evidence) B. Doxycycline (weak recommendation; level III evidence) Presence of comorbidities, such as chronic heart, lung, liver, or renal disease; diabetes mellitus; alcoholism; malignancies; asplenia; immunosuppressing conditions or use of immunosuppressing drugs; Use of antimicrobials within the previous 3 months: A. A respiratory fluoroquinolone (moxifloxacin, gemifloxacin, or levofloxacin) (strong recommendation; level I evidence) B. A b-lactam plus a macrolide (strong recommendation; level I evidence): High dose amoxicillin, amoxicillin-clavulanate ceftriaxone, cefpodoxime, and cefuroxime. Doxycycline [level II evidence] is an alternative to the macrolide. In regions with a high rate (>25%) of infection with high-level (MIC >16 mg/mL) macrolide-resistant S. pneumoniae, Consider the use of alternative agents listed above for any patient, including those without comorbidities. (Moderate recommendation; level III evidence.)
23
Antibiotic Choice: Inpatient PSI >90 (Class IV) or CURB-65 score 2-5 Inpatient: Non-ICU Treatment Respiratory fluoroquinolone (strong recommendation; level I evidence) B-lactam plus a macrolide (strong recommendation; level I evidence) (cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, and ampicillin; ertapenem for selected patients) Inpatient, ICU Treatment B-lactam (cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, or ampicillin-sulbactam) plus either azithromycin (level II evidence) or a fluoroquinolone (level I evidence) (strong recommendation) For Pseudomonas infection, use an antipneumococcal, antipseudomonal b lactam (piperacillin-tazobactam, cefepime, imipenem, or meropenem) plus either ciprofloxacin or levofloxacin or the above b-lactam plus an aminoglycoside and azithromycin or the above b-lactam plus an aminoglycoside and an antipneumococcal fluoroquinolone (Moderate recommendation; level III evidence.) For community-acquired methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection, add vancomycin or linezolid. (Moderate recommendation; level III evidence.)

Others Penicillin I or R 47% PSI >90 (Class I, II, III) or CURB-65 score 2-5 S. Pneumonia Viral Previously well, no prior ATB Macrolide, ( azithromycin, clarithromycin, or erythromycin) Doxycycline Medical morbidity or use of antimicrobials within the previous 3 months Respiratory fluroquinolone* (levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, gemifloxacin) High dose β-lactam + macrolide Risk of aspiration Am-CL; Clindamycin General Word ICU No risk for pseudomonasRisk for psudomonas: brinchiectasis, recent ATB, prior ICU hospitalization Respiratory fluroquinolones β-lactam* + macrolide β-lactam* + macrolide or respiratory quinolone Antipseudomonas β-lactam** + ciprofloxacin PSI <91 (Class I, II, III) or CURB-65 score 0-1 *Amox-CL, Cefotaxime, Ceftriaxone or Ertapenem **Pipercillin, imipenem, meropenem, cefepime ***Moxifloxacin, gemifloxacin, levofloxacin Atypicals et al IDSA:2006 H.

25
Time to First Antibiotic Dose
26
Timing of Antibiotic Administration IDSA 2000: within 8 hours (Meehan et al. JAMA, 1997) IDSA 2003: “Goal” within 4 hours (ouck et al: Arch Intern Med 2004; 164:637-44) A problem of internal consistency is also present, because, in both studies, patients who received antibiotics in the first 2 h after presentation actually did worse than those who received antibiotics 2–4 h after presentation. The first antibiotic dose should be administered while still in the ED. (Moderate recommendation; level III evidence.)
27
Switch from Intravenous to Oral Therapy
28
Patients should be switched from intravenous to oral therapy when they are: Hemodynamically stable Improving clinically Are able to ingest medications Have a normally functioning gastrointestinal tract. (Strong recommendation; level II evidence.) Patients should be discharged as soon as they are: clinically stable Have no other active medical problems Have a safe environment for continued care. Inpatientobservation while receiving oral therapy is not necessary. (Moderate recommendation; level II evidence.)
29
Criteria for clinical stability. Temperature 37.8C Heart rate 100 beats/min Respiratory rate 24 breaths/min Systolic blood pressure 90 mm Hg Arterial oxygen saturation 90% or pO2 60 mm Hg on room air Ability to maintain oral intake Normal mental status
