Newer trends in microbes and antibiotic sensitivity pattern of community acquired pneumonia in a tertiary care hospital in India

摘要

FiguresBackground: Emergence of unusual bacteria and resistance to antibiotics has made the treatment of community acquired pneumonia an enormous challenge. Study was undertaken to bring light to the recent trends in organisms and antibiotic sensitivity, which would help in tackling the menace of CAP at presentation itself. The study attempts to look into newer trends in the etiology and antibiotic sensitivity pattern in patients hospitalized with community acquired pneumonia in a tertiary care hospital in South India.
