The Portuguese Respiratory Society makes a series of recommendations as to the state of the art of the diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive approach to community-acquired pneumonia in immunocompetent adults in Portugal. These proposals should be regarded as general guidelines and are not intended to replace the clinical sense used in resolving each individual case. Our main goal is to stratify the patients according to the risk of morbidity and mortality in order to justify the following decisions more rationally: the choice of place of treatment (outpatient or inpatient), diagnostic tests and antimicrobial therapy. We also make a set of recommendations for the prevention of CAP. We plan to conduct multi-centre prospective studies, preferably in collaboration with other scientific societies, in order to be able to characterise the situation in Portugal more accurately and regularly update this document.
