ABSTRACT

It is to analyze and compare the risk factors influencing the infection of atherosclerosis patients with acquired pneumonia and the influencing factors of treatment and prognosis after infection with acquired pneumonia. A total of 100 atherosclerosis patients admitted to our hospital from May 2021 to April 2023 were selected, of which 50 were infected with acquired pneumonia during hospitalization as the observation group and 50 were not infected as the control group. There was no significant difference in the general data between the two groups. Patients with atherosclerosis who have diabetes, smoking and drinking habits, and worsening lipids are more likely to contract acquired pneumonia. Patients with atherosclerosis with diabetes mellitus and smoking habits who are infected with acquired pneumonia have a significant increase in recovery time and a significant decrease in prognosis. Conclusion: Patients with atherosclerosis who have diabetes mellitus, smoking and drinking habits, and deteriorating blood lipid levels have a significantly increased risk of acquired pneumonia compared with those who do not, and patients with atherosclerosis who have diabetes and smoking habits have a worse treatment and prognosis after infection with acquired pneumonia.
