The article is dedicated to the problems of diagnosis of pneumonia from point of view of evidence-based medicine. The extent of necessary examinations to confirm the diagnosis and clarification of etiologic agents is considered. The features of radiographic data in pneumonias caused by different etiological agents and data for the etiology of community-acquired pneumonia are presented. High frequency of mycoplasmal and chlamydial pneumonia is one of the features of respiratory tract disorders in young and middle age patients. Various clinical and epidemiological situations specific to different pathogens are listed. The choice of first-line antibiotic for treatment of pneumonia is considered. Most effective in suppression of various microorganisms antibacterial drugs are discussed. Programs of antibacterial therapy of pneumonia in out-patient and hospital settings are framed. The optimal time periods for antibiotic therapy are determined.
