Empirical Antibiotic Treatment of CAP- outpatient healthy individuals with no antibiotics in past 3 months
clarithromycin
Doxycycline
azithromycin
All of the above
All of the ff are true Except:
Results from the proliferation of microbial pathogens at the alveolar level and the host’s response to those pathogens
Lower respiratory tract infection (pulmonary parenchyma) acquired in the community within 24 hours to less than 2 weeks
Most common access of microorganisms to the lower respiratory tract is through aspiration from the oropharynx
pneumonia can't occurs via hematogenous spread
