Inhalation pneumonia (PI) is common in clinical practice but is rarely studied. For example, there are no data on the incidence of pneumonia after inhalation and risk factors or protective factors to develop one since it is known that anyone who inhaled does not necessarily develop an IP. There is no data on the benefit of treating inhalation by antibiotic therapy pre-emptively although this practice is common. In this context, this observational study wishes to take stock of the situation on the subject in order to determine what actions to implement to prevent IP.

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
Calculate the annual incidence of PI, the incidence of PI in inhaled patients (in each subgroup), and analyze the risk factors by logistic regression, based on the number of patients hospitalized during the study period.
