Die vorliegende Arbeit überprüft die Entlassungsbriefe des ersten Halbjahres 2011 der Medizinischen Klinik II des Klinikums Aschaffenburg – Alzenau. Ziel der Arbeit ist es zu erfassen, wie viele Patienten mit einer PPI-Medikation aus der stationären Behandlung entlassen wurden und in wie vielen Fällen diese Behandlung indikations-, zeit- und dosisgerecht war. Es sollte damit auch überprüft werden, ob in Entlassungsbriefen einer gastroenterologischen Fachabteilung ein höheres Bewusstsein für eine leitlinienkonforme PPI-Empfehlung vorliegt. / This thesis examines the discharge letters of the first semester 2011 of the Medical Clinic II of the Aschaffenburg - Alzenau Hospital. The aim of this study is to record how many patients with PPI medication were discharged from inpatient treatment and in how many cases this treatment was appropriate for indication, time and dose. It should also be used to check whether discharge letters from a gastroenterological department are more aware of a guideline-compliant PPI recommendation.

There are few data on mortality after discharge with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Therefore, we evaluated risk factors for 30-day post-discharge mortality after CAP. We included all patients of the prospective multi-national CAPNETZ study between 2002 and 2018 with (1) hospitalized CAP, (2) survival until discharge, and (3) complete follow-up data. The study endpoint was death within 30 days after discharge. We evaluated risk factors including demographics, comorbidities, admission CAP severity, and laboratory values and treatment-related factors in uni- and multivariable analyses. A total of 126 (1.6%) of 7882 included patients died until day 30 after discharge, corresponding to 26% of all 476 deaths. After multivariable analysis, we identified 10 independent risk factors: higher age, lower BMI, presence of diabetes mellitus, chronic renal or chronic neurological disease (other than cerebrovascular diseases), low body temperature or higher thrombocytes on admission, extended length of hospitalization, oxygen therapy during hospitalization, and post-obstructive pneumonia. By addition these factors, we calculated a risk score with an AUC of 0.831 (95%CI 0.822–0.839, p < 0.001) for prediction of post-discharge mortality. Early post-discharge deaths account for ¼ of all CAP-associated deaths and are associated with patient- and CAP-severity-related risk factors. Additional studies are necessary to replicate our findings in independent cohorts. Study registration: NCT 02139163.
