27 lip 2022 · Pulmonary pseudomonas aeruginosa infection is an uncommon cause of community-acquired pneumonia but can be a common cause of nosocomial pneumonia. It becomes increasingly important in critically ill and ventilated patients.
We present circumstantial evidence that the incidence of P aeruginosa has been overestimated for hospital-acquired pneumonia and reflex administration of empirical antipseudomonal antibiotic therapy may be unnecessary.
8 lut 2019 · Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an unusual pathogen in community-acquired pneumonia, especially in previously healthy adults, but often indicates poor prognosis. We report a previously healthy patient who developed severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) caused by P. aeruginosa.
It has been reported that CF patients with chronic Pseudomonas infections of the airways with hypogammaglobulinemia appear to have a better prognosis, suggesting that these patients may have fewer immune complexes in the lung and less damage as a result.
19 sty 2010 · Pseudomonas aeruginosa carries a notably higher mortality rate than other pneumonia pathogens. Because of its multiple mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, therapy has always been challenging.
8 sie 2023 · In cases of pneumonia requiring mechanical ventilation, septic shock, and burn infections, the prognosis varies and is largely dependant on the severity of the underlying disease process and the availability of antimicrobial agents that remain with pseudomonal activity.
