Infectious Diseases Society of America/American Thoracic Society Consensus Recommendation Criteria for Severe Community Acquired Pneumonia in Adults[1]
Major Criteria
- Invasive mechanical ventilation
- Septic shock with the need for vasopressors
Minor Criteria
- Respiratory rate >30 breaths/min
- PaO2/FiO2 ratio <250
- Multilobar infiltrates
- Confusion/disorientation
- Uremia (BUN level, >20 mg/dL)
- Leukopenia (WBC count, <4000 cells/mm3)
- Thrombocytopenia (platelet count, < 100,000 cells/mm3)
- Hypothermia (core temperature, <36 degrees C)
- Hypotension requiring aggressive fluid resuscitation
Clinical Prediction Rule for Predicting Pulmonary Infiltrates Based on Clinical Findings
A clinical prediction rule found the five following signs from the medical history and physical examination best predicted infiltrates on the chest radiograph of 1134 patients presenting to an emergency room:[2]
- Temperature > 100 degrees F (37.8 degrees C)
- Pulse > 100 beats/min
- Crackles
- Decreased breath sounds
- Absence of asthma
Number of Findings | Primary Care | Emergency Room |
---|---|---|
5 | 47% | 75% |
4 | 27 | 56 |
3 | 8 | 22 |
2 | 4 | 11 |
1 | 1 | 3 |
0 | 1 | 2 |
