About this study

Official title: Evaluating the Adherence to Guidelines' Empirical Antibiotic Recommendations and Outcome of Patients Admitted to a Hospital Ward With a Diagnosis of Community-acquired Pneumonia

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the disease burden of hospitalized patients with CAP and HCAP in real life of China

Read the detailed description

In China, the data about current management of patients hospitalized with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) in the real-life setting is not available,type of pneumonia, selection of initial antibiotic, time to clinical stability, antibiotic choice anf modification,clinical outcomes and costs remain unclear.

In this study, we will collect comprehensive information on CAP and healthcare associated pneumonia (HCAP) management patterns to evaluate the disease burden of hospitalized patients with CAP and HCAP in real life of China .to analyze microbiological characteristics,clinical manifestations,antibiotic regimens ,adherences to guidelines and effect on outcome in different groups of patients with CAP (> and = 65 years, different comorbidities ,risk factors) ,to investigate microbiological characteristics,clinical manifestations,antibiotic regimens ,adherences to guidelines and effect on outcome in different groups of disease severity with CAP ,to provide the difference on microbiological characteristics,clinical manifestations,antibiotic regimens ,and outcome between patients with CAP and HCAP ,to understand the current situation of antibiotic regimen ,to evaluate influence of different antibiotic regimens on prognosis.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. initial antibiotic treatment failure rate

    a change in antibiotic therapy due to worsening signs or symptoms of infection or lack of clinical improvement after first dose use of antibiotics to 72h

    Measured: 72 hours

  2. in-hospital clinical failure rate

    1)a change in antibiotic therapy due to worsening signs or symptoms of infection or lack of clinical improvement, 2) in-hospital mortality, 3) recurrence, defined as signs or symptoms of infection after completion of therapy requiring re-initiation of antibiotics

    Measured: Time from date of admission to discharge up to 1 week

  3. 30-day post-discharge clinical failure rate

    rate of re-hospitalization due to pulmonary infection and death during the follow-up period at 30 days post-discharge from hospital

    Measured: discharge up to 5 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Duration of intravenous antimicrobial therapy

    Time from the first dose of intravenous antibiotics to date of stop of intravenous antibiotics ,participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. Duration of oral antimicrobial therapy

    Time from date of administration of first antibiotic to date of discontinuation of last antibiotic

    Measured: 2 weeks

  3. Duration of antimicrobial therapy

    Time from date of administration of first antibiotic to date of discontinuation of last antibiotic (or to date of censoring, whichever comes first) upto a maximum of 30 days post-discharge from hospital post discharge from hospital

    Measured: 6 weeks

  4. Days of each antimicrobial therapy

    Time from date of first administration on admission to hospital to date of discontinuation (or to date of censoring, whichever comes first) upto a maximum of 30 days post-discharge follow-up for each antibiotic

    Measured: 6 weeks

  5. Hospital length of stay

    Patients will be asked about hospitalization, date, Patients will be asked about hospitalization, date, participants will be asked about the time of admission and discharge

    Measured: 2 weeks
