Brief Summary   We seek to evaluate appropriateness of empirical antibiotic therapy for community acquired infections in critically ill patients and its effect on outcomes. We also seek to evaluate our concordance with current guidelines.
Primary outcomes measured are mortality at 28 days. Secondary outcomes are ventilator free days, vasopressor free days, renal replacement free days at 28 days and length of ICU stay and hospital stay. ICMR guidelines and ISCCM guidelines for tropical illness are used to compare concordance.
