The principal aims of this programme are:
Aims and

objectives
1. To study the risk, and prognosis factors of severe acute community-ac-

quired and ICU-acquired respiratory infections in Spain, including bio-
markers and genetic factors.

2. To study risk, and prognosis of community-acquired and hospital acquired

respiratory infections in patients not admitted to the ICU in Spain, also

including biomarkers.

3. To study in depth the microbial etiology and resistances of all the populations
mentioned above. In this objective we will include the investigation of new rapid

molecular techniques.

4. To study whether the implementation of educational programmes and bun-

dles may decrease the incidence of hospital-acquired pneumonia inside and out- á
side the ICU.
í

5. To investigate the best way to treat multiresistant microorganisms.

6. To investigate the epidemiology, virulence, inflammatory response and
clinical outcomes of serotypes of S. pneumoniae causing invasive disease
í
before and after the introduction of the new vaccine PVC 13.

7. To investigate new mechanisms of virulence, resistance and treatment of
í
S. pneumoniae.

8. To use our available animal models of severe pneumonia (P. aeruginosa,
MR S. aureus and S. pneumoniae) for translational research.
í

9. To develop new clinical guidelines for the management of community-acquired
pneumonia, hospital-acquired pneumonia and ventilator-associated pneumonia.
