Abstract:
Conjugate pneumococcal vaccines have been licenced for use in Australia since Dec 2000, became available around June 2001 and marketed towards the end of 2001. Its widespread use has however been limited by lack of affordability, not being part of the routine childhood vaccination schedule. In order to assess the potential benefits of the widespread use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines in Australia, reliable estimates of the incidence of pneumococcal disease are required. The main manifestations are bacteraemia, pneumonia and otitis media. Pneumococcal bacteraemia, diagnosed on the ba

Abstract:
The diseases of the respiratory system occupy the first position which constitutes nearly 62-65 % in the structure of child morbidity. Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is one of the most common diseases of modern society. Cytokines play a central role in inflammatory response that is a basis for further immune response. Our aim was to study the effect of synbiotics on pro- and anti-inflammatory serum cytokines (IL-8 and IL-4) concentrations in pre-preschool children with CAP.

An important physiological role in the body of the child has a normal intestinal micro flora, which in connection with person’s microorganism is regarded as a kind of extracorporeal organ. According to several authors, 88.6 % of children with acute respiratory diseases reveal disbiotic changes of intestinal micro flora. Among patients with pneumonia revealing frequency of the third level dysbiosis is 44.4 %, and besides quantitative violations there occurs also a high-quality disintegration of components of micro ecological system.

Abstract:
Treatment failure in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is the failure to normalize the clinical features (eg, fever, cough, sputum production), or nonresolving image in chest radiograph, despite antimicrobial therapy. The incidence of treatment failure in CAP has not been clearly established; according to several studies it ranges between 6% and 15%. The rate of mortality increases significantly, especially in those patients with severe CAP. It is important to be able to identify what patients are at risk for progressive or treatment failure pneumonia that may make them candidates for a more

Abstract:
Abstract Pneumonia is a common diagnosis for intensive care unit (ICU) admission. In 2012, 51% of the ICU-treated infections in Finland were of pulmonary origin. The ICU-treated pneumonias can be classified according to acquisition of infection as community-acquired (CAP) or hospital-acquired (HAP). Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a subtype of HAP. Patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (SCAP) require ICU treatment due to need of mechanical ventilation or hemodynamic support. SCAP is associated with high morbidity and high ICU and hospital mortality. The aim of this observa

Abstract:
Background Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a common illness in patients admitted to hospital, accounting for nearly 10% of acute medical admissions. Despite widespread use of antimicrobial therapy, morbidity and mortality from this disease remains high. In recent years in the UK, there have been significant developments in both preventative and treatment strategies for this illness. To understand the impact of these changes and direct future management strategies, it is important that the epidemiology of this disease is fully understood. This thesis investigates changes in epidemiology a

Abstract:
This study has examined prescribing practices for patients with mild/moderate community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) at outpatient settings in Mongolia. The aim was to determine the extent of and factors influencing prescribing practices and to understand reasons for inappropriate prescribing and providing of medicines for treatment of mild/moderate CAP. This study provided useful information for policy makers on prescribing for CAP, emphasizing several issues such as appropriate use of antibiotics and patient safety (safe injection practices).

Abstract:
Introduction Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) emerged as a cause of hospital infection in 1961, only two years after the introduction of methicillin. In Italy the rate of MRSA in hospital is very high (39-41%) and it is stable since many years. In the last years, there have been several reports of community-acquired MRSA (CA-MRSA) which differ from hospital-acquired MRSA strains (HA-MRSA) for a susceptibility profile with resistance to fewer classes of antibiotics and for the presence of specific virulence factors such as the Panton-Valentine Leukocidin toxin.

Class of 2013 Abstract<br>Specific Aims: The objectives of this project were to determine the time to appropriate antibiotic therapy for community-acquired pneumonia, evaluate the appropriateness of antibiotic changes within a 72 hour period, and to determine the rate of re-admissions for pneumonia. Methods: A retrospective chart review of patients admitted to an academic medical center in March 2012 with a diagnosis of pneumonia was performed. Subjects under the age of 18 years or who were not treated for infectious pneumonia were excluded. Relevant data were extracted from the subjects’

Abstract:
Although there are well-documented benefits from influenza vaccine and 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (23vPPV) against invasive pneumococcal disease and laboratory confirmed influenza, their effectiveness against pneumonia remains controversial for community-based persons aged >=65years. At the time of this research, within Australia, only the government of Victoria publicly funded these vaccines for elderly persons. With continued growth of the elderly population, the subsequent adoption of an Australia-wide program, and increasing uptake of similar programs in other countries,
