Abstract
Aspiration pneumonia is a unit of pneumonia which is diverse in nature. To date, no study evaluating the effects of pneumococcal or influenza vaccines in preventing aspiration pneumonia has been reported, leaving their preventive effects unknown.
The data from our epidemiological studies of pneumonia suggest that each vaccine has the possibility of partially preventing aspiration pneumonia. For prevention of aspiration pneumonia, comprehensive preventive measures, including vaccination, are essential.
