Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence and prevalence of aspiration pneumonia are underestimated. It is mostly because of similarities between pneumonias from different causes and lack of specific marker to distinguish them from each other.[1]
- The incidence/prevalence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
Prevalence
- The prevalence of aspiration pneumonia is estimated to be 5% to 15% of all pneumonias in the hospitalized population.[2]
- The prevalence of aspiration pneumonia is approximately 5,000 to 15,000 per 100,000 individuals admitted in the hospital due to community acquired pneumonia.[3]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- The mortality rate of aspiration pneumonia is approximately 10.6-21%.[1]
Age
- The incidence of aspiration pneumonia increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is 70-80 years.[1]
Race
- There is no racial predilection to aspiration pneumonia.
Gender
- Males are more commonly affected by aspiration than females.[2]
