Overview
Common risk factors in the development of empyema include:[1] Bacterial pneumonia, thoracic surgery[2] NSAIDs use during acute viral infection is associated with an increased risk of empyema in children,[3] Lung abscess, chest trauma,[4] and post-thoracostomy drainage.[5]
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in the development of empyema include:[1]
- Bacterial pneumonia

- Chest trauma[4]
- Following tube thoracostomy drainage[5]
- Poor dental hygiene individuals[7]
- Alcoholics[7]
- Unconciousness leading to aspiration of gastric contents[7]
