The Changing Spectrum of Pneumonia-CAP, HCAP, HAP

Healthcare-associated pneumonia

is a relatively new clinical entity that

includes a spectrum of adult pts

who have a close association with

acute-care hospitals or reside in

chronic-care settings that increase

their risk for pneumonia caused by

Getting Therapy Right First Time

There is now significant evidence that adequate

antibiotic therapy will save more lives than

virtually all other ICU therapy

Causative Agents

Enteric G(-) bacilli

-Most frequent, particularly in patients with late-onset disease

and in patients with serious underlying disease often already

on broad-spectrum antibiotics.

-Prior use of broad-spectrum abx and an immunocompromised

state make resistant gram-negative organisms more likely.

P. aeruginosa and Acinetobacter

-common in late-onset HAP, particularly in late-onset VAP

Page 17: Diagnosis and stratification of patients at risk for MDR ...infosites.mims.com/Portals/2/PDF/Chen.2.Risk stratification for MDR... · Diagnosis and stratification of patients at risk

Causative Agents

S. aureus

in about 20~40% of cases and is particularly common in

-ventilated pts after head trauma, neurosurgery, and wound infection

-in pts who had received prior antibiotics or prolonged care in ICU

Anaerobes

-common in pts predisposed to aspiration

-more often with oropharyngeal intubation than nasopharyngeal

intubation.

Page 18: Diagnosis and stratification of patients at risk for MDR ...infosites.mims.com/Portals/2/PDF/Chen.2.Risk stratification for MDR... · Diagnosis and stratification of patients at risk

Causative Agents

Legionella pneumophilia

-Occurs sporadically

-But be endemic in hospitals with contaminated water systems.

-Incidence is underestimated because test to identify Legionella

not performed routinely.

-Patients who are immunocompromised, critically ill, or on

steroids are at highest risk for infection.

1. Monotherapy with selected agents can be used for pts without

resistant pathogens.

2. Combination therapy is a common practice in suspected and proven

MDR gram negative HAP/VAP.

3. Use an agent from a different antibiotic class since recent abx

increases probability of inappropriate therapy and predispose to

resistance to that same class of antibiotics.

4. All of the above

Keypad Question: Which of these statements about

empiric therapy in HAP is correct?
