Abstract：Hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is a prevalent kind of hospital-acquired infections and ranks first among hospital-acquired infections in China. HAP has a high morbidity and mortality, long hospitalization time and high medical cost. With the antibiotic abuse, the development and wide application of immunosuppressive therapies, the pathogens that cause HAP are more diverse, and drug resistance phenomenon becomes more severe. This paper aims to review the distribution of pathogenic bacteria and antimicrobial resistance of HAP in China and at abroad, so as to provide reference for clinical treatment.
