DRIP 0–3 — lower risk of drug-resistant pathogens
Band: DRIP 0–3 — lower risk of drug-resistant pathogens
Interpretation. DRIP 0–3 — lower risk of drug-resistant pathogens
Suggested management. Below the published ≥4 threshold; narrower-spectrum therapy may be appropriate if clinical judgment agrees.
Drug Resistance in Pneumonia (DRIP) Score: 0 — DRIP 0–3 — lower risk of drug-resistant pathogens. Interpretation: DRIP 0–3 — lower risk of drug-resistant pathogens What to do: Below the published ≥4 threshold; narrower-spectrum therapy may be appropriate if clinical judgment agrees. Inputs: Antibiotic use within previous 60 days (+2): false; Residence in a long-term-care facility (+2): false; Tube feeding (+2): false; Prior infection with a drug-resistant pathogen within 1 year (+2): false; Hospitalization within previous 60 days (+1): false; Chronic pulmonary disease (+1): false; Poor functional status (+1): false; Gastric acid suppression (+1): false; Wound care (+1): false; MRSA colonization within 1 year (+1): false Source: Webb BJ et al. Derivation and Multicenter Validation of the Drug Resistance in Pneumonia Clinical Prediction Score. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. DOI: 10.1128/AAC.03072-15. PMID: 26856838. Scope: DRIP Table 3 — major factors +2 (antibiotics ≤60 d, LTC residence, tube feeding, prior DRP ≤1 y) and minor factors +1 (hospitalization ≤60 d, chronic lung disease, poor function, acid suppression, wound care, MRSA colonization ≤1 y); total 0–14; ≥4 high risk for drug-resistant pathogens.
