Physicians must remain attuned to the increased incidence of infectious complications in alcoholics as compared with the general population. Prompt diagnosis and vigorous early treatment of pneumonia and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis may reverse and otherwise grave prognosis. Althought many mechanisms of host defenses seem affected by alcohol ingestion, the precise mechanisms of increased bacterial susceptibility in alcoholism remain unclear.
与普通人群相比，医生必须始终关注酗酒者感染性并发症发生率的增加。对肺炎和自发性细菌性腹膜炎进行及时诊断和积极早期治疗可能会扭转原本严重的预后。尽管许多宿主防御机制似乎受到酒精摄入的影响，但酗酒者细菌易感性增加的确切机制仍不清楚。
