About Pneumonia evaluation
Pneumonia evaluation combines history (fever, productive cough, pleuritic chest pain, shortness of breath) with vital signs, oxygen saturation, and chest imaging. Most healthy outpatients with community-acquired pneumonia respond to oral antibiotics — high-dose amoxicillin or a macrolide for previously healthy patients without recent antibiotic exposure, with broader regimens for those with comorbidities or risk factors for drug-resistant organisms. Hospitalization is considered for hypoxemia, hemodynamic instability, multilobar disease, or social factors preventing safe home care.
