What if saving a pneumonia patient was as simple as adding one cheap pill?
A new NEJM RCT from Kenya just showed exactly that. 👇
2,180 adults with community-acquired pneumonia were randomized within 48 hrs to:
🅰️ Standard Care (WHO regimen)
β-lactam (penicillin/cephalosporin) macrolide (erythro/azithro)
🅱️ Standard Care 10 days of low-dose steroids
Dexamethasone 6 mg or
Hydrocortisone 160 mg or
Methylpred 30 mg or
Prednisolone 50 mg or
Prednisone 50 mg (bioequivalent dosages)
30-day mortality:
22.6% with steroids vs 26.0% with standard care
➡️ HR 0.84 (95% CI 0.73–0.97), P = 0.02
Adverse events similar. Steroid-related serious AEs: 0.5%.
💡 One low-dose steroid… in hospitals with almost no ICU support… saved lives.
Global pneumonia care may never be the same.
