Abstract
Synopsis: Omadacycline is a new antibiotic, derived from the tetracycline class, which might fill the need for a novel antibiotic that is effective against the common bacterial organisms causing community-acquired pneumonia. This trial showed it to be noninferior to moxifloxacin. Source: Stets R, Popescu M, Gonong JR, et al. Omadacycline for community-acquired bacterial pneumonia. N Engl J Med. 2019;380:517–527.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Pulmonary Medicine provides a forum for the discussion of important new knowledge in the field of pulmonary medicine that is of interest and relevance to the practitioner. This goal is achieved through mini-reviews on focused sub-specialty topics in areas covered within the journal. These areas include: Obstructive Airways Disease; Respiratory Infections; Interstitial, Inflammatory, and Occupational Diseases; Clinical Practice Management; Critical Care/Respiratory Care; Colleagues in Respiratory Medicine; and Topics in Respiratory Medicine.
