Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Immune response to pneumococcal vaccination in patients who were diagnosed with CAP due to S. pneumoniae in comparison with patients with another causative pathogen. Main parameters are antibody titres against the different<br>pneumococcal serotypes before and after vaccination and avidity maturation of these antibodies.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
• To investigate antibody response after pneumococcal vaccination in patients with community acquired pneumococcal<br>pneumonia in the past who failed to elicit a specific antibody response previously. <br /><br>• To investigate the cellular immune responses after pneumococcal vaccination in patients with community acquired pneumococcal pneumonia in the past compared to pneumonia patients with another pathogen.<br /><br>• To investigate quality of life by the RAND-36 score in patients with a community acquired pneumonia in the past. <br /><br>• To investigate the long-term mortality after community acquired pneumococcal pneumonia.
