    Snippet: There are not many domestic clinical studies on the causative bacteria of antibiotic treatment of severe community-acquired pneumonia. According to foreign research, S. pneumoniae, Legionella spp. H. influenzae, Enterbacteriaceae spp., S. aureus, and Pseudomonas spp. are the major causative bacteria of community-acquired pneumonia, and about 20% cases of community-acquired pneumonia are due to atypical bacteria [170, 171] .

    Document: There are not many domestic clinical studies on the causative bacteria of antibiotic treatment of severe community-acquired pneumonia. According to foreign research, S. pneumoniae, Legionella spp. H. influenzae, Enterbacteriaceae spp., S. aureus, and Pseudomonas spp. are the major causative bacteria of community-acquired pneumonia, and about 20% cases of community-acquired pneumonia are due to atypical bacteria [170, 171] . Because Legionella are especially important in severe pneumonia caused by atypical bacteria, antibiotics that have antibacterial activities against these bacteria must be included in the early empirical treatment [172] . In clinical stud-ies that have been conducted up to date, combination therapy has been not more beneficial than monotherapy for treating mild pneumonia; however, combination therapy has produced better results for patients with severe pneumonia [142, 173, 174] .
