“…HAP incidence ranges from 5 to more than 20 cases per 1000 hospital admissions, with the highest rates in immunocompromised, post-surgery and elderly patients [3,[40][41][42][43]. However, in contrast to VAP patients in whom it is relatively easy to collect distal respiratory secretions through the endotracheal tube as soon as the infection is suspected and before the introduction of any new antibiotics, obtaining reliable specimens from the lower respiratory tract for microbiological cultures in patients developing HAP is difficult and thus most of them are receiving new antibiotics before specimens can be obtained.…”

Background“Pneumonia and influenza” are the third leading cause of death in New York City. Since 2012, pneumonia and influenza have been the only infectious diseases listed among the 10 leading causes of death in NYC. Most pneumonia and influenza deaths in NYC list pneumonia as the underlying cause of death, not influenza. We therefore analyzed death certificate data for pneumonia in NYC during 1999–2015.MethodsWe calculated annualized pneumonia death rates (overall and by sociodemographic subgroup) and examined the etiologic agent listed.ResultsThere were 41 400 pneumonia deaths during the study period, corresponding to an annualized age-adjusted death rate of 29.7 per 100 000 population. Approximately 17.5% of pneumonia deaths specified an etiologic agent. Age-adjusted pneumonia death rate declined over the study period and across each borough. Males had an annualized age-adjusted pneumonia death rate 1.5 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.5–1.5) times that of females. Non-Hispanic blacks had an annualized age-adjusted pneumonia death rate 1.2 (95% CI, 1.2–1.2) times that of non-Hispanic whites. The annualized pneumonia death rate increased with age group above 5–24 years and neighborhood-level poverty. Staten Island had an annualized age-adjusted pneumonia death rate 1.3 (95% CI, 1.2–1.3) times that of Manhattan. In the multivariable analysis, pneumonia deaths were more likely to occur among males, non-Hispanic blacks, persons aged ≥65 years, residents of neighborhoods with higher poverty levels, and in Staten Island.ConclusionsWhile the accuracy of death certificates is unknown, investigation is needed to understand why certain populations are disproportionately recorded as dying from pneumonia in NYC.

“…These two studies recruited women or men with an average age of over 70 years living in the community. Increasing age is also associated with increasing incidence of pneumonia and likelihood of hospitalization and mortality [21,22]. Overall, as the world population ages, more public health services will be required for older people.…”

Background Immobility is common and associated with adverse outcomes in hospitalized patients, especially older people. However, the factors contributing to mortality in bedridden patients are not well known. This study aimed to estimate short-term mortality and analyze risk factors that affect the prognosis of bedridden patients. Methods This was a multicenter study in China involving 23,738 patients admitted to 25 hospitals between November 2015 and June 2016. All-cause mortality was recorded for 90 days after enrollment regardless of whether death occurred before or after discharge. Socio-demographic and clinical information was obtained from an electronic database. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with mortality.
