Clinical Factors Associated with Mortality among Patients with Pneumonia: A Systematic Review
Keywords:
Pneumonia, Clinical Factors, Mortality, Systematic ReviewAbstract
Pneumonia is a respiratory infection that remains a medical and public health problem worldwide. Patients with pneumonia are at risk of death in case of lack of immediate and appropriate care. The purpose of this descriptive article is to systematically review clinical factors associated with mortality among patients with pneumonia. Research articles published in both national and international databases in the period between 1993 and 2018 were systematically reviewed. As a result, 16 articles from PubMed, Google Scholar, and ThaiJo were compatible with both the selection criteria and quality assessment. Results, in terms of clinical factors associated with mortality among patients with pneumonia, were determined by using effect size and 95% confidence interval (95%CI). They were then summarized and classified into 3 groups: 1) clinical factors of signs and symptoms, 2) clinical factors of laboratory testing, and 3) clinical factors of complications. Medical and health professionals who are responsible for treating patients with pneumonia should closely monitor those clinical factors, in order to prevent and reduce the risk factors associated with mortality among patients with pneumonia.
