Nursing home-acquired pneumonia.

K B Crossley1, J R Thurn.   

Abstract

Pulmonary infection acquired in nursing homes has not been extensively studied. Those data that have been published about the frequency and nature of nursing home-associated pneumonias are reviewed here. It remains unclear whether or not these institutionally-acquired pneumonias differ significantly from those that would occur in an age-matched control group with community-acquired infection. Viral pneumonias are recognized as significant causes of morbidity in the elderly.
