Q
What is the general definition of pneumonia?
A
Pneumonia is an infection of the pulmonary parenchyma
3
Q
What is CAP (community-acquired pneumonia)?
A
Pneumonia that is acquired in the communityoutside of health care facilities. Compared with health care–associated pneumonia, it is less likely to involve multidrug-resistantbacteria. Although the latter are no longer rare in CAP they are still less likely.
4
Q
What is (HCAP/MCAP) Health/Medical Care-Associated Pneumonia?
A
an infection associated with recent exposure (within 3 months) to thehealth caresystemincluding hospital, outpatient clinic,nursing home,dialysiscenter, chemotherapytreatment, orhome care. HCAP is sometimes called MCAP (Medical Care–associated pneumonia).
5
Q
What is Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP)?
A
is acquired in ahospitalthat occurs 48 hours or more after admission, and likely to involvehospital-acquired infections, with higher risk ofmultidrug-resistantpathogens.
6
Q
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP)
A
occurs in patients onmechanical ventilationthat arises more than 48 to 72 hours after endotracheal intubation.
7
Q
A 32 years old male was brought to Emergency Room for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) due to high-velocity road traffic accident 30 mins back. He was unconscious at that time with GCS (Glasgow Coma Scale) of 5, HR of 92/min, BP of 98/54 mmHg, RR of 20/min and SpO2 of 84% which was still falling so e was intubated with cuffed endotracheal tube and put on Ventilator for invasive ventilation. There was past medical history of Hypertension with dyslipidemia and patient is on statins with ACE inhibitor. There was no other previous significant surgical history. After 30 hours of intubation and invasive ventilation, patient showed consolidation in middle lobe of right lung and diagnosed for Pneumonia. On the basis of this clinical vignette, which of the following type best describes patient’s condition?
A. CAP B. HAP C. VAP D. MCAP E. Sorry, Not sure.

Sputum gram stain and sputum culture
35
The term atypical pneumonia has what characteristic Gram Stain pattern? (explain)
not visible on Gram stain and not culturable on standard blood agar. The use of sputum stain and culture is somewhat controversial because of their low sensitivity.

Tool used for determination of site of care.
These rules have been used to identify patients who can be safely treated as outpatients and those who require hospitalization because of high risk of complications.
38
How does the CURB-65 point system work for determining treatment of pneumonia?
In CURB-65, 1 point is allotted for each of the following risk factors:

empyema
Exacerbation of comorbid illnesses
Metastatic infection (e.g., brain abscess or endocarditis),
Lung abscess,
Complicated pleural effusion
```
47
Thoracentesis
Analysis of a pleural effusion can sometimes be useful to determine the presence of an empyema if the diagnosis is unclear. Any new large effusion should be analyzed. Empyema is an infected pleural effusion. Empyema acts like an abscess and will improve more rapidly if it is drained with a chest tube.
This tool can be used to remove the fluid from the lungs.
48

moderate
severe
49
