Community acquired pneumonia among adult patients at an Egyptian university hospital: bacterial etiology, susceptibility profile and evaluation of the response to initial empiric antibiotic therapy.

34 While investigating the response to each used empiric antibiotic regimen, the highest rate of nonresponsiveness was observed in cases receiving anti-pseudomonal/anti- pneumoccocal β-lactam plus ciprofloxacin/levofloxacin 30.43% (seven out of 23 cases received this regimen for anti-pseudomonal coverage) followed by those receiving an antipneumococcal β-lactam plus levofloxacin 11/67 (16.41%) and anti-MRSA 5/31 (16.12%) for severe CAP, but did not reach statistical significance.
