  • Title: [Chart-algorithm of early etiological diagnosis of acute pneumonia].
    Author: Shteĭngardt IuN, Ageeva TS.
    Journal: Klin Med (Mosk); 1990 Feb; 68(2):78-81. PubMed ID: 2335951.
    Abstract:
    A proposed method of scheme-algorithm is aimed at facilitation of an early etiological diagnosis of acute pneumonia (AP) by initial clinical signs. A blind trial with 78 AP verified cases showed that the scheme can establish a correct etiological diagnosis basing on AP early clinical symptoms alone in 75% of cases. The sensitivity of the method is 75%, specificity 91%.
