Abstract Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of routine treatment and routine treatment plus fiber bronchoscopy in the treatment of elderly patients with aspiration pneumonia (AP). Methods: 40 cases of elderly patients with AP who was admitted in this hospital from January 2012 to January2015 were selected as the objects, among them, 22 cases were male, 18 female patients, randomly divided into two groups, and the compared group (20 cases) were given routine treatment (including common sputum suction catheter for sputum), while the observation group (20 cases) received conventional treatment plus with fiber bronchoscope bronchial lavage and continuous observation until discharge, to observe the effect of the two groups before and after treatment in patients with white blood cell total (WBC) and oxygen index (PaO 2 / FIO 2), after a week of treatment X Ray sternum inflammatory lesions of the change. Results: After treatment, the two groups' FiO2 /PaO2 increased, WBC decreased, all the treatment of two groups were effective, and the observation group was significantly better than the compared group (P < 0.05). After the treatment for one week, the observation group was significantly better than the control group 50% (10/20) (P) (18/20 < 0.05). Conclusion: After treatment, the pulmonary shadow of FiO2/ PaO2 and WBC is significantly improved which proved that in the treatment of elderly patients with AP, the curative effect of bronchial lavage with bronchial tube is better than that of ordinary sputum suction tube.
