Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) causes significant morbidity and mortality in adult population. Objectives: To assess clinical and laboratory variables measured at hospital admission associated to clinically relevant adverse outcomes in patients hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia. Methods: We prospectively assessed clinical and laboratory variables associated to serious adverse events in a cohort of CAP hospitalized adult patients. Major adverse outcomes were admission to ICU, need for mechanical ventilation, septic shock, prolonged hospital stay, cardiovascular and in-hospital complications and 30-day mortality. The clinical and laboratory variables measured at hospital admission associated to serious adverse events were assessed by univariate and multivariate analysis using logistic regression models. Results: 659 CAP hospitalized immunocompetent adult patients were assessed, mean age: 67 years, 52% were male, 77% had comorbidities, 23% were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), 12% needed mechanical ventilation, 31% had hospital complication, mean hospital length of stay was 9 days and 9.9% died at 30-days follow up. Comorbidities, hemodynamic instability and renal dysfunction were associated with ICU admission, risk of complications, and prolonged hospital stay. Mechanical ventilation requirement and septic shock were more frequent in patients with hemodynamic instability and renal dysfunction. Advanced age, chronic cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, aspiration pneumonia, tachypnea, and renal dysfunction were associated with high risk of cardiovascular events in the hospital. Conclusion: The clinical and laboratory variables measured at hospital admission allow us to predict the risk of serious adverse events in CAP hospitalized adult patients.
