Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2023
Pneumonia is one of the most common reasons for health care utilization in the United States. It can be caused by many different pathogens, but rarely is it able to be identified in specific cases. This has led most racial disparities research to focus on community acquired pneumonia and microbes of public health concern such as influenza, tuberculosis,

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2010In the last decade, descriptions of outbreaks of extensively drug-resistant strains of tuberculosis (TB) have increased concern about the nosocomial transmission of TB - a potentially life-threatening occupational respiratory infection. In addition, outbreaks of avian influenza caused by an H5N1 virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome caused by a ...

Viral infections constitute more than 60% of acute lower respiratory illnesses. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and parainfluenza viruses are the most frequent etiologic agents. After transmission by large droplet aerosol or direct contact, the viruses gain entry into host cells through specific viral surface proteins; subsequently, pathogenetic ...

Nosocomial Respiratory Infections
Infection Control, 1983AbstractNosocomial respiratory tract infections are major causes of excessive morbidity and mortality in US hospitals, affecting an estimated five to ten of every 1,000 patients. Patients with serious underlying diseases have an especially high risk of acquiring these infections, and that risk is magnified by exposure to respiratory therapy.
