The research on the related risk factors of stroke-associated pneumonia

Objective:To research the related risk factors of stroke-associate pneumonia(SAP)to provide the evidences for the early diagnosis,treatment and the precaution of SAP.Method:According to whether or not complicated with SAP,353 cases of acute stroke patients were divided into the SAP group(n=100)and the Non-SAP group(n=253).The incidence of SAP on the acute stroke patients,the risk factors were investigated.Result:1By the univariate analysis,the risk factors of SAP were age≥65years,stroke history,diabetes,pulmonary disease,mechanical ventilation,indwelling deep vein catheter,indwelling gastric tube,antacid,the prophylactic use of antibiotics,dehydrating agent,swallowing disfunction,type of stroke,consciousness disorde,NIHSS≥13,GCS9(P0.01).2By the logistics regresson analysis,the independent risk factors of SAP were age≥65years,diabetes,swallowing disfunction,indwelling deep vein catheter,indwelling gastric tube,consciousness disorder and NIHSS≥13.Conclusion:SAP has higher incidence in acute stroke patients.Various independent risk factors lead to SAP.
