Аннотация
Внебольничная пневмония (ВП) занимает 4–8-е место в ряду ведущих причин смерти в мире и обусловливает наибольшее число летальных исходов от инфекционных заболеваний в США. В настоящей статье представлен анализ нововведений и различий последних рекомендаций Американского общества инфекционных болезней (АОИБ) и Американского торакального общества (АТО) по ведению больных ВП, в основе которых лежит оценка тяжести течения заболевания. В соответствии с рекомендациями АОИБ в зависимости от выбора места лечения — на дому, в отделении общего профиля, в отделении интенсивной терапии (ОИТ) — различается и тактика антибактериальной терапии. Согласно рекомендациям АТО больных ВП предложено разделять на четыре группы с учётом наличия сопутствующих сердечно-сосудистых и бронхолегочных заболеваний, других факторов риска, встречи с лекарственноустойчивыми возбудителями (антибиотикорезистентные штаммы Streptococcus pneumoniae, энтеробактерий и Pseudomonas aeruginosa), а также места лечения (на дому, в отделении общего профиля или ОИТ). И в рекомендациях АОИБ, и в рекомендациях АТО в качестве инструмента для определения места лечения выбрана шкала PORT. В то же время, в согласительных рекомендациях АОИБ и АТО с этой целью предлагается более доступная шкала CURB/CRB-65, к помощи которой следует повторно обращаться в первые несколько часов наблюдения за пациентом.
