• Routine chest radiographs are not necessary for the g p yconfirmation of suspected CAP in patients well enough to be treated in the outpatient setting
• Chest radiographs, posteroanterior and lateral, should be obtained in patients with suspected or doc menteddocumented:

• Ampicillin or penicillin G should be administered to the fully immunized infant or school-aged child admitted to a hospital ward with CAP when local epidemiologic data document lack of substantial high-level penicillin resistance for invasive S. pneumoniae.
• Empiric therapy with a third-generation parenteral cephalosporin (ceftriaxone or cefotaxime) should be prescribed for hospitalized infants and children:
• in regions where local epidemiology of invasive pneumococcal strains documents high‐level penicillin resistance, or
• for infants and children with life‐threatening infection, including those with empyema.• Non–β-lactam agents, such as vancomycin, have not been shown to be
