2 Our Secret weapon !!!

3 Diagnostic criteria SCAP Are we aware of existing criteria and if so, do we use them ? Validity of Criteria Where we need to go

4 Diagnostic criteria SCAP Are we aware of existing criteria and if so, do we use them ? Validity of Criteria Where we need to go

5 Aims Hypothesis To understand the perception of physician attitudes to define which patients with CAP should be admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU)  Significant variation among physicians occur regarding who should be admitted to the ICU

6 Demographics Practice variablesNo (%) Profession Physician370 (98.7) Other5 (1.3) Specialty Pulmonary disease290 (75.5) Critical care262 (68.2) Type Academic161 (41.9) Other Location Urban220 (57.3) Other164 (42.7) n=383

8 Aware and DO NOT Use it!! Percentage

9 NOT Aware and DO NOT Use it!! Percentage

10 Practice setting Percentage Academic (n=182) vs. Non-academic (n=203) p=0.04 p=0.02p<0.01

11 Conclusions Criteria to define the need for ICU admission were infrequently reported by survey responders Important differences were found in academic vs. non-academic practitioners regarding the criteria used to admit patients to the ICU with CAP

12 Implications There is a need for more unified and appropriate criteria to define which patients with CAP require admission to the ICU

13 Diagnostic criteria SCAP Are we aware of existing criteria and if so, do we use them ? Validity of Criteria Where we need to go

14 Mortality and Care Risk of dying due to CAP Home Ward ICU

15 Stratification CAP-PORT Fine MJ, et al. N Engl J Med. 1997;336:243-250 Step-1 Risk class I (lowest severity level) Age < 50 years No comorbid conditions (neoplastic diseases, liver disease, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, or renal disease) Normal or only mildly deranged vital signs and normal mental status Step-2 Not Risk class I Classes II-V 3 -Demographics 5 -Comorbid conditions 5 -Physical exam findings 7 -Laboratory or radiographic findings

N Engl J Med. 1997;336:243-250 Step-1 (Pre-morbid conditions) + Step-2 (PSI score) + Step-3 (Clinical judgment)

17 Mortality – CURB-65 score  Confusion; U rea (>19.1 mg/dL); Respirations (> 30 rpm); Blood pressure (DBP < 60); 65 years of age CURB-65 Score Lim et al. Thorax 2003 58:377 n=1,068 n=324 n=184 n=210

18 Severe Pneumonia Criteria MAJOR Mechanical ventilation Multilobar or increase infiltrates >50% in 48h Septic Shock or need for vasopressors >4h Acute renal failure MINOR SBP < 90 mm Hg DBP < 60 mm Hg RR >30/min Pa O2 /Fi O2 < 250 Bilateral or multilobar infiltrates 1 of 2 major criteria 2 of 3 minor criteria ATS guidelines.

19 Methods Study Design  A retrospective observational cohort study of patients hospitalized at a two teaching hospitals in San Antonio, Texas  VA medical center and county-run referral hospital  Admission between Jan 1, 1999 and Dec 31, 2001  Study was approved by the institutional board review

32 Procalcitonin (PCT) Stimulated by bacterial endotoxin Viral and localized infection have lower PCT levels than systemic infections Autoimmune and neoplastic disease do not induce Short half life

33 PCT and Diagnosis Nyamande Int J TB Lung Dz 2006; 10: 510 P=0.0004

34 PCT and Antibiotics RCT to examine whether PCT guidance associated with less antibiotic use PCT strata  <0.1- Antibiotics strongly discouraged  0.1-0.25- Antibiotics discouraged  0.25-0.5- Antibiotics advised  >0.5- Antibiotics strongly recommended Christ-Crain AJRCCM 2006 174: 84

35 PCT and Antibiotic Discontinuation

36 PCT/CRP and Treatment Failure Prospective cohort of 453 CAP patients  18% treatment failures CRP & PCT higher in failures  Day 1 »CRP: 13.6 vs. 23.2 »PCT: 0.5 vs. 1.5  Day 3 »CRP: 4.5 vs. 12.1 »PCT 0.3 vs. 0.5 Menendez Thorax 2008; 63:447

37 Conclusions Revisited ATS rule has the best power to predict the need for ICU admission PSI score is the best predictor for mortality due to CAP The CURB-65 rule may be used as an alternative tool to the PSI for the detection of low risk patients, but is not a good rule to define ICU admission

38 Conclusions Described rules are imperfect and have significant limitations due to the the difficult of application to individual patients Further studies are needed to develop clinical prediction tools for high-risk patients requiring ICU admission
