Study of Risk Factors for Developing Inhalation Pneumonia After Inhalation

Conditions
Risk Factor
Inhalation Pneumonia
Registration Number
NCT03108430
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens
Brief Summary

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.
