Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events and the clinical outcomes, during hospitalization for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Design: We performed a retrospective study of 4408 patients with CAP presenting to five hospitals over a 2-year period. Clinical information, co-morbidities, cardiovascular events and 90-day mortality were collected from review of medical case notes. The relationship between cardiovascular events and outcomes were analysed using multivariable logistic regression. Results: From a total of 4408 patients, 2.2% developed stroke, 5% acute coronary syndrome or myocardial infarction and 9.3% new onset atrial fibrillation. These were associated with increased 90-day mortality [odds ratio (OR), 1.49 95% CI 1.18-1.87, P = 0.0006]. Vascular events were independently associated with increased length of hospital stay-median 12 days (IQR 5-22), compared to patients with no vascular events 8 days (IQR 3-17 days, P < 0.0001). Conclusions: Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events are common during hospitalization for CAP and are associated with increased 90-day mortality.
