- W2433409436 abstract "Introduction and background Nosocomial pneumonia is the second most common nosocomial infection. It is usually bacterial in origin. Nosocomial pneumonia is responsible for 25% of infections in the ICU. Early-onset nosocomial pneumonia tends to carry a better prognosis than does late-onset nosocomial pneumonia. Patients and methods This study was planned to evaluate the role of the clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in detecting the efficacy of antibiotic therapy chosen for treatment of nosocomial Enterobacter pneumonia. In all, 200 patients admitted to the ICU who had evidence of pneumonia were included in the study. Patients were followed up by evaluating their serum CRP levels and CPIS during the first 8 days of admission. Results Enterobacter aerogenes represented 24% of nosocomial pneumonia cases in the study. An overall 70.8% of patients with E. aerogenes detected in culture and sensitivity were sensitive to both amikacin and levofloxacin. Those patients received only amikacin. Sixteen patients provided good response to amikacin. The remaining 18 patients showed poor response to amikacin therapy (proved by insignificant differences between CPIS and CRP on the first and fourth day of admission). In the case of these patients levofloxacin was added to antibiotic therapy and they were followed up for a further 4 days. The results demonstrated that 16 patients provided good response to amikacin and levofloxacin on the fifth and eighth days. Conclusion This study demonstrated that CPIS and serum CRP can be used as indicators of the efficacy of antibiotics in nosocomial pneumonia." @default.
