SUNRISE SESSION

Sunrise Session 2 – INTER-HOSPITAL DEBATE Date: March 7, 2014 (Friday) Venue: Meeting Room 8, Time: 7:30am – 9:00am

10th PCCP Inter-Hospital Engagement: The Pulmonary and Critical Care Debate PROCALCITONIN-BASED ALGORITHMS FOR ANTIBIOTIC USE: PROS AND CON

Background Setting: Respiratory infections remain one of the most common reasons why patients seek medical care in ambulatory and hospital settings, which when managed late or inappropriately, become precursors to sepsis. Accurate diagnosis, risk stratification, and optimal use and duration of appropriate antibiotics are the cornerstones for its management. Procalcitonin (PCT) is a useful marker for bacterial infection used to guide antibiotic therapy in lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) including community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). In the light of inherent limitations of culture-guided management, non-specific radiologic findings, prohibitive cost of antibiotics and presence of other co-morbidities that mimic infections, PCT may be a promising tool for antibiotic therapy decision-making algorithms. However, it is expensive and available locally in very few health facilities. Its routine use for clinical decision making whether to start, continue or discontinue antibiotics in the local clinical setting needs further discussion.

QUESTION: Among patients at high risk for community-acquired and nosocomial severe pneumonia with significant poorly controlled co-morbidities, how useful is PCT in your clinical decision regarding the patient’s antibiotics?

PRO: PCT is Useful in Algorithms on Antibiotics

CON: PCT is Not Useful in Algorithms on Antibiotics
