Antibiotics are not indicated for aspiration or aspiration pneumonitis without evidence of bacterial infection. Empirical treatment for aspiration pneumonia
Aspiration pneumonia occurs when food or liquid is breathed into the airways or lungs, instead of being swallowed. Alternative Names. Anaerobic pneumonia; Aspiration of vomitus; Necrotizing pneumonia; Aspiration pneumonitis. Causes. Risk factors for breathing in (aspiration) of foreign material into the lungs are:
Although the association of PPI administration and pneumonia remained significant when subdivided into aspiration pneumonia and non-aspiration pneumonia, there was a stronger association with aspiration pneumonia (1.4, 95% CI: 1.1-1.8) than non-aspiration pneumonia (1.2, 95% CI: 1.1-1.4) (Table (Table5). 5). This may suggest that some of the
Aspiration pneumonia is an urgent health concern with high mortality and long hospitalization in industrialized and aging countries. However, there is no information about the effectiveness of azithromycin (AZM) for the treatment of aspiration pneumonia. This study investigated if AZM is effective for the treatment of aspiration pneumonia.

Introduction. The incidence of aspiration pneumonia is difficult to determine, because there are few diagnostic markers for aspiration and most studies do not distinguish between aspiration pneumonia and aspiration pneumonitis. 1 Furthermore, studies suggested that as much as 5% 15% of people diagnosed with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) actually have aspiration pneumonia, 2, 3 even more

Mirage like fantasy.
Like an aspiration that can never be achieved.
(Too good to be true?)
My grandfather died of Broken Heart Syndrome. He and Granny had been married for 50 years when she died from pneumonia after gall bladder surgery.
