AB  - Pneumonia,  an  infection  of  the  lung  parenchyma,  is  classified  as  community-acquired  (CAP)  or  health  care–associated  (HCAP).  The  HCAP  category  is  subdivided  into  hospital-acquired  pneumonia  (HAP)  and  ventilator-associated  pneumonia  (VAP).  HCAP  is  associated  with  current  hospitalization  for  ≥48  h,  hospitalization  for  ≥2  days  in  the  prior  3  months,  residence  in  a  nursing  home  or  extended-care  facility,  antibiotic  therapy  in  the  preceding  3  months,  chronic  dialysis,  home  infusion  therapy,  home  wound  care,  and  contact  with  a  family  member  who  has  a  multidrug-resistant  (MDR)  infection.
