Many patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) are polymorbid and this requires a comprehensive evaluation of comorbid illnesses to determine the risk of unfavorable outcome of pneumonia. Aim: To evaluate the complex impact of comorbidity, assessed by Charlson Comorbidity Index (ССІ), on the severity and prognosis of CAP. Materials and Methods: 1292 patients hospitalized in the Clinic of Pneumonology and Phthisiatrics of MHAT “Saint Marina” - Varna were retrospectively studied for the period from 2012 to 2015. For each patient ССІ was calculated and patients were divided into three levels of comorbidity: low (ССІ=0); intermediate (ССІ=1-2) and high (ССІ≥3). The assessment of the severity of CAP was made according to PSI, CURB-65 and IDSA/ATS criteria. Results: Patients were at average age of 59,94±17,03, 57,2% of them were male. The mean ССІ was 1,58 ± 1,84. It was significantly higher in non-survivors versus survivors (3,28 vs. 1,36; р
