Community-acquired pneumonia is common and important infectious disease in adults. This work represents an update to 2009 treatment guideline for community-acquired pneumonia in Korea. The present clinical practice guideline provides revised recommendations on the appropriate diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of community-acquired pneumonia in adults aged 19 years or older, taking into account the current situation regarding community-acquired pneumonia in Korea. This guideline may help reduce the difference in the level of treatment between medical institutions and medical staff, and enable efficient treatment. It may also reduce antibiotic resistance by preventing antibiotic misuse against acute lower respiratory tract infection in Korea.
社区获得性肺炎是成人常见且重要的传染病。这项工作是对2009年韩国社区获得性肺炎治疗指南的更新。本临床实践指南针对19岁及以上成人社区获得性肺炎的适当诊断、治疗和预防提供了修订建议,同时考虑到韩国社区获得性肺炎的现状。本指南可能有助于减少医疗机构和医务人员之间的治疗水平差异,并实现高效治疗。它还可能通过防止韩国针对急性下呼吸道感染滥用抗生素来降低抗生素耐药性。
