http://www.multiplan.com/healthwell/wellness/pneumonia.cfm

Extractions: Find a Hospital / Facility Pneumococcal (pronounced new-mo-KOK-al) disease is an infection caused by bacteria. These bacteria can attack different parts of the body. When they invade the lungs, they cause the most common kind of bacterial pneumonia. When the same bacteria attack blood cells, they cause an infection called bacteremia (bak-ter-E-me-ah). And in the brain, they cause meningitis. Pnemococcal pneumonia is a serious illness that kills thousands of older people in the United States each year. Yes. The pneumococcal vaccine is safe, it works, and one shot lasts most people a lifetime. People who get the vaccine are protected against almost all of the bacteria that cause pneumococcal pneumonia and other pneumococcal diseases as well. The shot, which is covered by Medicare, can be a lifesaver. Who Should Get the Vaccine?

pneumonia. Definition. pneumonia is an infection of the lung, and can be causedby nearly any class of organism known to cause human infections.
http://www.chclibrary.org/micromed/00061150.html

Extractions: Pneumonia is an infection of the lung, and can be caused by nearly any class of organism known to cause human infections. These includes bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. In the United States, pneumonia is the sixth most common disease leading to death . It is also the most common fatal infection acquired by already hospitalized patients. In developing countries, pneumonia ties with diarrhea as the most common cause of death. Description To better understand pneumonia, it is important to understand the basic anatomic features of the respiratory system. The human respiratory system begins at the nose and mouth, where air is breathed in (inspired) and out (expired). The air tube extending from the nose is called the nasopharynx. The tube carrying air breathed in through the mouth is called the oropharynx. The nasopharynx and the oropharynx merge into the larynx. The oropharynx also carries swallowed substances, including food, water, and salivary secretion which must pass into the esophagus and then the stomach. The larynx is protected by a trap door called the epiglottis. The epiglottis prevents substances which have been swallowed, as well as substances which have been regurgitated (thrown up), from heading down into the larynx and toward the lungs. A useful method of picturing the respiratory system is to imagine an upside-down tree. The larynx flows into the trachea, which is the tree trunk, and thus the broadest part of the respiratory tree. The trachea divides into two tree limbs, the right and left bronchi. Each one of these branches off into multiple smaller bronchi, which course through the tissue of the lung. Each bronchus divides into tubes of smaller and smaller diameter, finally ending in the terminal bronchioles. The air sacs of the lung, in which oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange actually takes place, are clustered at the ends of the bronchioles like the leaves of a tree. They are called alveoli.

Prevention Alternative names: Pneumonitis; Bronchopneumonia; Community-acquired pneumonia Definition: Pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs caused by a bacterial, viral, or fungal infection. Causes and Risks Pneumonia is a very common, often serious illness that affects about 3-4 million people each year in the United States. Many different organisms can cause pneumonia, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Bacterial pneumonias tend to be the most serious. In adults, bacteria are the most common cause, and of these Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is the most common. Respiratory viruses are the most common causes of pneumonia in young children, peaking between the ages of 2 and 3. By school age, the bacterium Mycoplasma pneumoniae becomes more common. In some people, particularly the elderly and those who are debilitated, pneumonia may follow influenza Pneumonia is classified according to a number of different systems. One classification system divides pneumonia into "community-acquired" (pneumonia contracted outside of a health-care institution) and "hospital-acquired" (acquired in a hospital or other long-term health care facility). Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most common form of community-acquired pneumonia.

Extractions: Patient Notes VOL 103 / NO 4 / APRIL 1999 / POSTGRADUATE MEDICINE Pneumonia is an infection or inflammation of the smallest air passages in the lungs. Infection can be caused by any of dozens of bacteria, viruses, and fungal organisms. Inflammation can result from inhaling dust, chemicals, food, or vomit. Pneumonia can be a very dangerous disease if it is not recognized and treated early. When you have pneumonia, the tiny air sacs in your lungs (alveoli) fill with pus and other liquid. Oxygen then can't reach your blood. If your blood contains too little oxygen, your body's cells can't work properly and you become ill. There are several different kinds of pneumonia, but bacterial, viral, and a less typical type called mycoplasmal pneumonia are the most common. The viruses and bacteria that cause pneumonia are contagious and are usually found in fluid from the mouth or nose of an infected person. Illness can spread through exposure to coughs and sneezes, shared drinking glasses and eating utensils, and used tissues or handkerchiefs. Bacterial pneumonia This is the most serious type of pneumonia and can attack anyonefrom infants to the very old. People with respiratory disease and weakened immune systems are at greatest risk.
Postgraduate Medicine: Pneumonia Symposium Introduction
Communityacquired pneumonia at the end of the 20th century. In fact, the designation atypical pneumonia has no useful meaning and should be abandoned.
http://www.postgradmed.com/issues/1999/04_99/symp_int.htm

Extractions: Each year, close to 4 million episodes of community-acquired pneumonia occur in the United States, about 500,000 of them necessitating hospitalization. In the vast majority of cases, patients are seen initially by a primary care physician in an office setting, an urgent-care facility, or an emergency department. When evaluating a patient who has a lower respiratory tract infection, the first question a physician asks himself or herself is whether the patient has pneumonia. This question cannot be answered adequately without a chest radiograph; physical examination simply is not sensitive enough to detect the difference between pneumonia and an exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
