Key Points

Patients diagnosed with HAP showed a 28-day mortality that highlights key clinical parameters for survival.
Among 142 patients, 102 had ventilator-associated pneumonia, indicating a prevalent risk factor for high mortality.
Elevated procalcitonin levels and higher WBC counts at pneumonia onset were associated with worse outcomes.
Concomitant malignancy significantly increased the risk of poor prognosis in patients with HAP or VAP.
