Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is a type of pneumonia that occurs during or after a hospital stay. It is usually caused by bacteria, including drug-resistant strains, making appropriate antibiotic treatment crucial. The specific choice of drugs depends on various factors such as the suspected pathogens, local antibiotic resistance patterns, and individual patient characteristics. Some of the commonly used drugs for hospital-acquired pneumonia include beta-lactam antibiotics, fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides, vancomycin, and linezolid.
