Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The investigators will conduct a retrospective cohort analysis of children hospitalized for pneumonia at the Filderklinik between December 2006 and November 2010. The Bacterial Pneumonia Score, a validated composite laboratory, clinical and radiologic score developed by Moreno et al, will be retrospectively applied to define cases as either viral or bacterial pneumonia. The investigators will compare disease severity on admission, clinical course, and outcomes (in terms of complications, length of stay and readmission rates) between antimicrobial and non-antimicrobial managed bacterial pneumonia cases. Long-term Follow-Up will be assessed by telephone interviews with the parents.
