With the rising aging population, the number of people with stroke, dementia and Parkinson's disease is huge.These patients often have swallowing dysfunction, cognitive decline, decreased immune function, long-term bed rest, malnutrition, and sarcopenia, and are prone to pneumonia.However, the clinical manifestations of these patients with pneumonia are non-specific.The patients often cannot accurately express their complaints, resulting in symptoms being ignored.The underlying diseases of the nervous system increase the risk of pneumonia-related death, and is associated with poor prognosis.This article aimed to review the risk factors, prevention and treatment of these three neurological disorders complicated with pneumonia.
