Resumen

Se efectúa una revisión de los artículos más interesantes de infecciones respiratorias, publicados en el último trimestre del año 2009 y en 2010. En cuanto a las bronquiectasias, destacan las Guidelines de la British Thoracic Society, así como diversos artículos de la evolución natural del proceso y el impacto de las reagudizaciones de ésta, así como del tratamiento inhalatorio antibiótico de las bronquiectasias. Con respecto a la tuberculosis, es recomendable señalar el documento de consenso SEPAR-SEIMC para el manejo de la tuberculosis, así como las publicaciones sobre la utilización de interferón-gamma en el diagnóstico de infección tuberculosa. Las nuevas recomendaciones SEPAR de neumonía adquirida en la comunidad (NAC) se han publicado muy recientemente, y junto con ellas destacan estudios de etiología viral de las NAC, impacto del tratamiento corticoideo en las neumonías, duración del tratamiento antibiótico y medidas preventivas de neumonías, tanto comunitarias como nosocomiales.

Palabras clave:

Abstract

We review the most interesting articles on respiratory infections published in the last trimester of 2009 and in 2010. Notable publications in bronchiectasis were the Guidelines of the British Thoracic Society, as well as several articles on the natural course of the process, the impact of exacerbations on the course of the disease, and treatment with inhaled antibiotics. Other notable publications were the SEPAR-SEIMC consensus document for the management of tuberculosis and articles on the use of interferon-gamma in the diagnosis of tuberculosis infection. The new recommendations of the Spanish Society of Pneumology and Thoracic Surgery on community-acquired pneumonia have recently been published. Equally important are studies on the viral etiology of community-acquired pneumonia, the impact of corticosteroid treatment in pneumonia, the duration of antibiotic therapy and preventive measures in both community-acquired and nosocomial pneumonia.

Keywords:
Guidelines
Bronchiectasis exacerbations
Interferon gamma in the diagnosis of tuberculosis infection
Viral etiology in pneumonia
Corticosteroids and community-acquired pneumonia
