About 4 million adults develop pneumonia each year in  the US, resulting in 64 million days of restricted activity, 39  million days of bed confinement, and 10 million days of lost work. Yet  the admission rates to hospital, length of stay, investigations,  antimicrobial therapy and prevention strategies vary greatly from one  geographic area to the next, and the scientific basis for many of our  management strategies for pneumonia is weak to nonexistent. There are  over 100 microbial agents that can cause pneumonia and many of these,  especially \u003cem\u003eStreptococcus pneumoniae\u003c\/em\u003e, Group A streptococcus, and  \u003cem\u003eStaphylococcus aureus\u003c\/em\u003e, are in a state of flux in terms of  changing antimicrobial resistance. This book is designed to provide  new information about pneumonia and identify critical research  questions that will come to the fore as we enter the 21st century.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2001-08-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780306464324\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/b111487\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: cm xcm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 925\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266271563916,"sku":"9780306464324","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780306464324.jpg?v=1770818111","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780306464324","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
