    Snippet: Empirical antibiotics for patients admitted to general wards are selected based on the severity of the disease; in other words, they are selected based on whether the patient has mild pneumonia (CURB-65 0-1 points, PSI 1-2 points), moderate pneumonia (CURB-65 2 points, PSI 3-4 points), or severe pneumonia (CURB-65 3 points, PSI 5 points).

    Document: Empirical antibiotics for patients admitted to general wards are selected based on the severity of the disease; in other words, they are selected based on whether the patient has mild pneumonia (CURB-65 0-1 points, PSI 1-2 points), moderate pneumonia (CURB-65 2 points, PSI 3-4 points), or severe pneumonia (CURB-65 3 points, PSI 5 points). Empirical antibiotics and the method of administration are chosen based on health professionals' judgment on the patient's clinical situations and the selected antibiotics, antibiotic resistance, medication allergy, compliance, previous antibiotic use (penicillin, macrolide, fluoroquinolone, etc.), cost, and potential side effects. Isolation and susceptibility results of causative bacteria that are later reported must be considered along with the clinical progress to readjust the antibiotic selection.
