Eligibility Criteria
Pre-intervention period All patients admitted with a diagnosis of CAP will be included in the participating centers during the 12 months prior to the intervention. Case detection is done through the electronic record of the basic minimum data set (MDS) (2, 36). Diagnosed patients will be selected at discharge: "simple acute bronchitis and pneumonia excluding asthma major criteria" (by diagnosis related group, DRG 541) and "simple and pleuritis in over 17 Pneumonia" (DRG 089). Post-intervention period All patients admitted with a diagnosis of CAP in the participating centers, which measures the bundle will apply prospectively included. Case detection was performed by daily review of patients admitted to target units and will be coordinated by the IP address of each center.
You may qualify if:
- Diagnosis of CAP at hospital admission .
- Age: 18 years or more.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with nosocomial pneumonia or criteria related to health care.
- Patients with severe immunosuppression (HIV infection with \<200 CD4+ lymphocytes / mm3), neutropenia (\<500 neutrophils / mm3).
- Patient treated with immunosuppressive drugs.
