This is a multicenter, prospective cohort study, with syndrome differentiation and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine as the exposure factor. Patients using syndrome differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine combined with conventional treatment of Western medicine are classified as the treatment cohort of Integrated Chinese and Western medicine, and patients using conventional treatment of Western medicine only are classified as the treatment cohort of Western medicine
Severe pneumonia is a severe respiratory disease with high mortality, many complications and poor prognosis. Traditional Chinese medicine has certain curative effect in the adjuvant treatment of severe pneumonia, but there is a lack of systematic TCM syndrome differentiation scheme and its curative effect evaluation in the real medical environment. The cohort study on the efficacy of TCM syndrome differentiation scheme in the adjuvant treatment of severe pneumonia is conducive to providing new evidence for the optimization and evidence-based evaluation of TCM treatment scheme for severe pneumonia. Therefore, this study took severe pneumonia as the research object, standardized use of traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment scheme as the exposure factor, carried out a multi center prospective cohort study, used the 90 day mortality, 28 day mortality, treatment failure rate, etc., to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of severe pneumonia, and provided evidence for the application and promotion of traditional Chinese medicine in severe pneumonia.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Treatment cohort of integrated traditional Chinese and Western Medicine | Taking the use of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation treatment as the exposure factor, the continuous use of traditional Chinese medicine for 3-5 days was defined as mild exposure, continuous use of traditional Chinese medicine for 6-10 days as moderate exposure, and continuous use of traditional Chinese medicine for more than 10 days as severe exposure. The exposure group was treated with syndrome differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine combined with conventional Western Medicine (treatment cohort of integrated traditional Chinese and Western Medicine). |

| Western medicine treatment queue | The non exposure group (Western medicine treatment cohort) used conventional western medicine treatment but not standardized TCM syndrome differentiation treatment. |

| traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) | Drug | Taking the use of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation treatment as the exposure factor, the continuous use of traditional Chinese medicine for 3-5 days was defined as mild exposure, continuous use of traditional Chinese medicine for 6-10 days as moderate exposure, and continuous use of traditional Chinese medicine for more than 10 days as severe exposure. The exposed group used TCM syndrome differentiation therapy combined with conventional western medicine treatment (integrative medicine treatment cohort), and the non exposed group used conventional western medicine treatment without standardized TCM syndrome differentiation treatment (Western medicine treatment cohort). The treatment plan was formulated by the clinician, and the researcher did not intervene. |

Severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a severe respiratory disease with further development and deterioration of lung tissue inflammation, causing organ dysfunction and even life-threatening. Patients with SCAP are prone to hypoxemia, respiratory failure, septic shock, leading to multiple organ failure and poor prognosis. Western medicine treatment of SCAP mainly focuses on anti infection and mechanical ventilation. Although new intervention measures and management concepts are constantly optimized, the mortality rate of SCAP is still high. The treatment of SCAP is facing a severe situation, so it is necessary to seek new adjuvant therapy.
