    AbstractBy developing a set of guidelines for admission parameters, antibiotic administration, and treatment, multidisciplinary health care professionals in a Utah health system have significantly reduced the number of deaths and hospital admissions for patients with community-acquired pneumonia. Lengths of stay also were reduced. Before the introduction of these standards, more than 70 different antibiotics had been used statewide.
