Document: Considering both the benefits and limitations of diagnostic testing, several international scientific societies have published guidelines on effective diagnostic testing strategies for hospitalised patients with CAP. However, important differences exist between recommendations of different societies [7] . These recommendations are mainly based on expert opinion given the scarcity of published evidence. In particular, substantial differences can be found between the two most cited international guidelines on CAP: the 2007 Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA)/American Thoracic Society (ATS) and the 2011 European Respiratory Society (ERS) guidelines [8, 9] . Limited data are available of real-life diagnostic testing practices for hospitalised patients with CAP and whether real-life diagnostic testing practices are concordant with the 2007 IDSA/ATS and 2011 ERS guideline recommendations [10] [11] [12] .
