Overview

Community-acquired pneumonia can be caused by viral, bacterial, and fungal organisms. Causative etiology varies with age, immune status, epidemiologic background, and comorbidity.

Causes

Common causes

Neonates
  • Bacteria
  1. Listeria monocytogenes
  2. Mycobacterium tuberculosis
  • Viruses
  1. Herpes simplex virus
  2. Adenovirus
  3. Mumps
  4. Enterovirus
Children
  • Bacteria
  1. Mycoplasma pneumoniae
  2. Chlamydophila pneumoniae
  3. Legionella pneumophila
  4. Chlamydia trachomatis
  • Viruses
  1. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)
  2. Metapneumovirus
  3. Adenovirus
  4. Parainfluenza
  5. Influenza
  6. Rhinovirus
Adults
  • Typical Bacteria
  1. Streptococcus pneumoniae
  2. Hemophilus influenzae
  3. Escherichia coli
  4. Klebsiella pneumoniae
  5. Pseudomonas aeruginosa
  • Atypical Bacteria
  1. Mycoplasma pneumoniae
  2. Chlamydophila pneumoniae
  3. Legionella pneumophila
  • Viruses
  1. Influenza
  2. Parainfluenza
  3. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)
  4. Metapneumovirus
  5. Adenovirus
  • Newborn infants, children, and adults are at risk for different spectrums of disease causing microorganisms.
  • In addition, adults with chronic illnesses, who live in certain parts of the world, who reside in nursing homes, who have recently been treated with antibiotics, or who are alcoholics are at risk for unique infections.
