Drug Resistance Factors In Healthcare-associated Pneumonia

NCT02736097 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 679

Last updated 2017-08-01

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Recently clinical guidelines categorize pneumonia in to three types: community, healthcare-associated, and hospital-acquired. Much of the existing research to describe the epidemiology of pneumonia in critically ill patients comes from single-center studies or from retrospective database analyses, which limit generalizability and lead to over-prescription of broad-spectrum antibacterial agents. This will be a prospective, multicenter epidemiological study to characterize pneumonia epidemiology in critically ill adult patients.
