ABSTRACT
The first mexican Consensus Meeting on CAP (Community Acquired Pneumonia) was held in Huatulco, Oaxaca, Mexico, on July 22–23, 2004. The event gathered the knowledge and personal participation of an important group of mexican specialists, with the aim of discussing the main topics regarding the management of this infectious pathology in the world and specifically in Mexico nowdays, in order to settle down guidelines and diverse criteria on the management of CAP in outpatients and in the hospital. Epidemiological, diagnostic, physiological, classification and treatment issues were discussed, with special focus on the behavior of causal pathogens and the resistance issues they show in Mexico. The spectrum of antibiotics used in the treatment of CAP was also a pivotal topic in the discussions, as long as it makes clear which antibiotic approaches are the most convenient in the way each modality of CAP is approached. Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) is a very heavy burden for the public health in the world and its morbidity and mortality rates are still unacceptable for current Medicine. From this point of view it is transcendentally important to be updated with the necessary data on susceptibility and antibiotic spectrum of the most common pathogens, as well as in the updated clinical management of CAP.
