Venn Diagram - Does this patient have pneumonia? Diagnosis is generally based on three lines of evidence: - Imaging evidence of a chest infiltrate (e.g., CXR, CT, ultrasound) - Inflammation (e.g., fever/hypothermia, rigors, night sweats, leukocytosis, left-shift, procalcitonin) - Pulmonary symptoms (e.g., dyspnea, cough, sputum production, pleuritic chest pain) and signs (tachypnea, hypoxemia). #Pneumonia #Venn #Diagram #Diagnosis #Pulmonolary
