摘要：
BACKGROUND: Impact of hospital admissions for pneumonia during 1998 in the Hospital Clinic, Barcelona. PATIENTS AND METHOD: Retrospective information on the hospitalizations for pneumonia was collected. RESULTS: During 1998 a total of 626 adult were admitted with a hospital diagnosis of pneumonia (72% were greater than or equal to 65 years). The average length of stay was 10 days. Half of these patients were previously hospitalized during the preceding 5 years. CONCLUSIONS: Hospital admissions due to pneumonia (17 cases per 1.000 hospitalizations) accounted for an estimated cost of 2.3% of the cost of all the hospitalized patients.
