description Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of early blood inflammatory indicators in patients with respiratory failure caused by severe community-acquired pneumonia. Methods A total of 186 patients diagnosed with respiratory failure due to severe pneumonia on admission were recruited in this study. According to clinical prognosis, they were divided into the death group (<i>n = </i>42) and improvement group (<i>n = </i>144). Twelve cytokines, ferritin, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, blood routine examination and blood gas analysis results of the patients within two days after admission were analyzed. Pneumonia severity index (PSI) and APACHE Ⅱ scores of the patients were collected. The correlation between the above indicators and prognosis was explored. Results Compared with the improvement group, the levels of IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-6, IL-8, C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin and ferritin were significantly higher in the death group (all <i>P &lt; </i>0.05). Upon admission, the hemoglobin level and platelet count in the death group were significantly lower than those in the improvement group (both <i>P &lt; </i>0.05). The PSI and APACHE Ⅱ scores on admission in the death group were significantly higher compared with those in the improvement group (both <i>P &lt; </i>0.05). Patients in the death group had higher lactic acid level and lower oxygenation index (OI) compared with their counterparts in the improvement group (both <i>P &lt; </i>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that IL-6, ferritin, PSI and APACHE Ⅱ scores and lactic acid level were the risk factors for poor prognosis, whereas platelet count was the protective factor for poor prognosis (all <i>P &lt; </i>0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve indicated that IL-6,procalcitonin and ferritin were favorable predictors for clinical prognosis of patients. When IL-6 and ferritin levels exceed 11.41 ng/L and 659 μg/L, and platelet count was less than 148.5&#x00D7;10<sup>9</sup>/L, patients were at risk of death. Conclusions In patients with respiratory failure caused by severe community-acquired pneumonia, the increase of blood inflammatory indicators, such as IL-6, ferritin and procalcitonin, suggests high risk death in patients, especially for patients with IL-6 &gt;11.41 ng/L, ferritin&gt;659 μg/L, and platelet count&lt;148.5&#x00D7;10<sup>9</sup>/L. Extensive attention should be paid to lowering the risk of death in these patients.
