Abstract
The objective of this study was to analyze risk factors of death in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). This was a retrospective analysis of medical records of 62 patients dead from CAP within a year in hospitals at Kazan city. We described clinical course of CAP leading to a patient's death. Predictors of fatal outcome of CAP were social status, delayed admission to a hospital, smoking history, alcohol abuse, mental and nutritive disorders, bilateral lung injury, pleural effusion, respiratory failure and haemodynamic instability.
