Brief Summary: Pneumopathy is the leading cause of death from infectious disease in the elderly Prior to 2021 the recommended duration of antibiotic therapy for pneumonia in adults was 7 days

Two theses have shown that these recommendations were poorly applied in geriatric services Indeed the duration of treatment exceeded 7 days and less than 30 of antibiotic antibiotic treatments were re-evaluated at 72 hours

In 2021 the SPLIF published new recommendations reducing this duration to 5 days in the event of clinical improvement observed on the 3rd day of treatment These new recommendations are based on studies in which the average age of participants was 65 years However the average age of patients in geriatric short-stay departments is 847 years

In addition the geriatric population is characterized by immunosenescence pulmonary vulnerability and undernutrition raising questions about the validity of these recommendations in the geriatric population

The investigators offer a monocentric retrospective observational study of the geriatric hospital Casanova to assess the application of SPLIF recommendations in the geriatric population
