Community-acquired pneumonia refers to infectious pulmonary parenchyma inflammation that occurs outside the hospital, including pneumonia that occurs during the incubation period after admission of pathogens with a clear incubation period. Community-acquired pneumonia has a high incidence and mortality rate, imposing a heavy medical burden and posing a serious threat to social public health. In the diagnosis and treatment of community-acquired pneumonia, traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine each have their own advantages. In order to strengthen the diagnosis and treatment of community-acquired pneumonia through the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and improve the prevention and treatment level of community-acquired lung disease, this guideline was developed by the Internal Medicine Professional Committee of the World Federation of Chinese Medicine Societies, led by Henan University of Chinese Medicine and the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine. This guideline refers to the development methods and processes of international clinical practice guidelines, based on the best existing evidence, combined with the characteristics of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia, weighing the pros and cons of intervention measures, and finally forming six recommended opinions, in order to provide references for the clinical practice of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of community-acquired pneumonia.
