Broad-spectrum antibiotics with coverage against all likely pathogens are recommended by the international guidelines. Inappropriate empirical treatment is one of the most important prognostic factors. Knowledge of local epidemiology and continuous microbiological surveillance is crucial for improving clinical approaches to empirical antimicrobial treatment. The development of protocols and policies for training healthcare professionals on preventive strategies, such as the "Pneumonia Zero" project, and improved implementation of antimicrobial stewardship practices, will aid early de-escalation of antibiotics and prevent resistance. 2022-11-23T09:26:01Z 2022-11-23T09:26:01Z 2022-10 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Plata-Menchaca EP, Ferrer R.
