Haemophilus influenza pneumonia

Hemophilus influenza pneumonia is an inflammation of the lungs caused by H. influenzae. This disease was thought to be rare in adults, mainly in infants and young children between 6 months and 5 years old, often with purulent meningitis. In recent years, the status of Haemophilus influenzae in adult pneumonia has been clinically recognized. According to statistics, 10% to 20% of community-acquired pneumonia is caused by Haemophilus influenzae, and 33% to 65% of nosocomial pneumonia in hospitals is nasopharynx. Endogenous inhalation of Haemophilus influenzae is an initiating bacterium and is caused by other Gram-negative bacterial infections.
