    Antibiotic use will be registered during hospital stay

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 week

  • 90-day mortality

    All-cause mortality on day 90 from admission will be assessed from the municipal personal records database

    90-days after hospital admission

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • 30-day mortality

    30-days after hospital admission

  • Length of hospital stay

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 week

  • Clostridium difficile infections

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 week

  • Length of intravenous antibiotic treatment

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 week

  • Complications

    Participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 1 week

  • +3 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Control

NO INTERVENTION

Patients will be treated as standard of care.

Antibiotic Stewardship Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be treated as standard of care. The Antibiotic Stewardship Intervention will be targeted at the physicians treating the community-acquired pneumonia patients. The purpose of the intervention is to increase prescription concordance with the national guideline for community-acquired pneumonia.

Behavioral: Antibiotic Stewardship Intervention

Interventions

The Antibiotic Stewardship Intervention will consist of education, motivating opinion leaders, adapting a pragmatic disease severity classification and prospective audit and feedback.

Antibiotic Stewardship Intervention
