Advantage of outpatient therapy:
Cost
Patient preference
Faster convalescence and avoidance of nosocomial
complications

•Not FDA approved
a sensitivity 60-80%; specificity >90%
1 IgM (1-50 weeks),, 2 Primary infection-IgM (4-6 weeks) IgG (often >6 weeks); 3 False positives with sputum.
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
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

Adapted from File T. Lancet 2003
Risk factors for infection with b-lactam–resistant
S. pneumoniae
Age <2 years or >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
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
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.)
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.)

Time to First Antibiotic Dose
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.)
Switch from Intravenous to Oral Therapy
Switch from Intravenous to Oral Therapy
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.)
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
Criteria for clinical stability.
