Abstract
The incidence of nosocomial bronchopneumonia varies according to authors. Several factors contributes to this diversity. Among them is the type of patients, the severity of disease on admission, the ventilation mode, the criteria of nosocomial bronchopneumonia diagnostic. These considerations should be taken in account by clinician interpreting literature results.
