- W1554503945 abstract "The authors studied 138 patients, 57 of whom were younger than 65 years of age and 81 who were 65 years of age and older, with community-acquired pneumonia to determine whether or not such pneumonia is different in the elderly and to define how such patients are investigated and treated. Pneumonia in the elderly was characterized by a higher mortality, 30 v 10%; more likely to be of unknown etiology, 54 v 30%; and more likely to show radiographic progression after the patient had been admitted to the hospital, 48 v 11%. In addition, elderly patients were more likely to be afebrile when admitted, 57 v 26%. Twenty-seven etiologic categories were present in the 77 patients in whom a cause for the pneumonia was established. Streptococcus pneumoniae accounted for 9.4% of the pneumonia overall and for 27% of the pneumonia among patients who had sputum cultures performed before antibiotic therapy. The diagnostic yield was 11.6% for blood cultures, 38.2% for sputum cultures, 2.3% for throat washing, and 22.1% for serological studies. Twenty-seven percent of patients were receiving antibiotics of the time of admission to the hospital. Most (79%) received more than one antibiotic after admission. This study indicates that community-acquired pneumonia is a serious illness and that an algorithm approach to diagnosis and treatment of such pneumonia is necessary." @default.
