Temporary disability was analysed for 186 patients with acute pneumonia (AP) treated in outpatient clinics. On demand, the patients were referred to hospitals. The disability duration was assessed in relation to the patients' age, associated diseases, smoking, time to diagnosis and hospitalization. It is shown that late diagnosis and hospitalization as well as misdiagnosis which is not uncommon lead to a prolonged period of temporary disability. Questions of the follow-up policy in acute pneumonia are covered.
