Clinics in chest medicine : respiratory tract infections : advances in diagnosis, management and prevention / Rosanel Amaro [and thirty-three others]. - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania : Saunders, c2011 - xiv, 604 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm. - Volume 32 : Number 3 .
Includes bibliographical references and index.
New diagnostic tests for pneumonia: what is their role in clinical practice? -- Biomarkers to optimize antibiotic therapy for pneumonia due to multidrug-resistant pathogens -- optimizing antibiotic pharmacodynamics in hospital-acquired and ventilator-acqquired bacterial pneumonia -- Epidemic viral pneumonia and other emerging pathogens -- Defining severe pneumonia -- The use of large databases to study pneumonia: what is their value? -- The impact of guidelines on the outcomes of community-acquired and ventilator-associated pneumonia -- Healthcare-associated pneumonia: approach to management -- De-escalation theraphy: is it valuable for the management of ventilator-associated pneumonia? -- Bronchiectasis: new approaches to diagnosis and management -- Diagnosis of ventilator-associated respiratory infections (VARI): microbiologic clues for tracheobronchitis (VAT) and pneumonia (VAP) -- Aerosolized antibiotics in the intensive care unit -- Should management of pneumonia be an indicator of quality of care? -- Prevention of VAP: is zero rate possible?
Provides information on pneumonia, including healthcare associated pneumonia, diagnostic tests for pneumonia, epidemic viral pneumonia and other emerging pathogens, biomarkers to optimize antibiotic therapy for pneumonia, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics to improve management of penumonia.
