Abstract
A prospective clinical study consisting of 50 Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) patients is undertaken to investigate the magnitude and pattern of clinical, radiological and bacteriological presentation. Among the cases of CAP which were admitted based on Indian Chest Society/National College of Chest Physician (ICS/NCCP) recommendations, 50 cases were selected and studied. Detailed analysis of history, clinical, bacteriological and radiological examination was done. The incidence of CAP was most common in men with the most common presentation being fever and productive cough.
