Disposition Pathway

  • Classes I and II: consider discharge
  • Class III: discharge verus admit based on clinical judgment
  • Classes IV and V: consider admission

CURB-65

  1. Confusion
  2. bUn > 19 mg/dl
  3. RR > 30
  4. BP < 90 SBP, or < 60 DBP
  5. Age > 65
  • Approximate 30-day mortalities and Tx considerations
    • +1 --> 3%, outpt tx
    • +2 -->7%, inpt, possible outpt
    • +3 --> 14% inpt, possible ICU
    • +4-5 --> 30% ICU

Prognosis

  • Half of patients are still symptomatic at 30 days, with a significant minority of patients experiencing chest pain, malaise or mild dyspnea even 2 to 3 months after treatment
  • In adults with CAP whose symptoms have resolved within 5-7 days, it is not recommended to routinely obtain follow-up chest imaging
