Does This Adult Patient Have Pneumonia? From The Rational Clinical Examination JAMA 2009; http://www.jamaevidence.com/ content/3485708
Study: Systematic review of articles assessing the sensitivity and specificity of clinical exam maneuvers for the diagnosis of adult community acquired pneumonia. Results: The presence of fever or immunosuppression had a positive likelihood ratio (+LR) of 2, while a history of dementia had a +LR of 3; however, these traits are not confirmatory. The presence of an abnormality in any vital sign, including tachycardia, tachypnea, or fever had a +LR ranging from 2-4, which was not significantly affected by different cut-points. The absence of vital sign abnormality had a –LR ranging from 0.5-0.8. The combination of respiratory rate <30/min, heart rate <100/min, and temperature <37.8°C had a –LR of 0.18. Findings on chest exam raised the likelihood
of diagnosis, but were uncommonly seen in studies.
For example, presence of asymmetric respirations essentially confirmed the diagnosis, but was only present in 4% of patients. In patients with a clinical diagnosis, but normal radiograph, only ~10% will develop radiographic findings in 72 h.
Conclusions: Evidence suggests no single item on clinical history or physical exam is sufficient to rule inoroutpneumoniawithoutchestx-ray.Vitalsign abnormalities were correlated with a diagnosis of pneumonia. Findings on chest exam significantly raised the likelihood of pneumonia, but were uncommonly seen in studies.

* Available in Canada through special access
Risk factors for mortality include need for ventilatory support due to pneumonia and septic shock need for ventilatory support due to pneumonia and septic shock
Risk factors for MDR VAP: prior IV antibiotic use within 90 days, septic shock at time of VAP, ARDS preceding VAP, 5+ days of hospitalization prior to VAP onset, acute renal replacement therapy prior to VAP onset
Risk factors for MDR HAP, MRSA VAP/HAP or MDR pseudomonas VAP/HAP: Prior IV antibiotic use within 90 days
Note: Indications for MRSA coverage includes IV antibiotic treatment during the prior 90 days and treatment in a unit where prevalence of MRSA of S. aureus isolates is not known or is >20%
Note: These guidelines may be less applicable in Canada given lower rates of antibiotic resistance among common nosocomial pathogens
Prevention
• PublicHealthAgencyofCanadarecommendsthefollowing
■ vaccine for influenza A and B annually for all ages ≥ 6 mo
■ pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (Pneumovax®) for all adults >65 yr and in younger patients
24 mo of age and older at high risk for invasive pneumococcal disease (e.g. functional or anatomic
asplenia, congenital or acquired immunodeficiency)
■ pneumococcalconjugatevaccine(Prevnar-13®)forallchildren<5yr,andforchildrenand
adolescents at high risk for invasive pneumococcal disease who are 5-17 yr and who have not previously received Prevnar-13® (CDC recommends giving Prevnar-13® to all adults at high risk for invasive pneumococcal disease)
