Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of candidaemia in Europe: results of 28-month European Confederation of Medical Mycology (ECMM) hospital-based surveillance study
Anna Maria Tortorano,Javier Pemán,Hannelore Bernhardt,Lena Klingspor,Christopher C. Kibbler,Odile Faure,E. Biraghi,Emilia Cantón,K. Zimmermann,S. Seaton,Renée Grillot +10 more
TL;DR: The survey results underline the burden of candidaemia in a wide range of patient populations, confirm the importance of non-albicans species, and provide baseline data for future surveillance studies at a European level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Candidaemia in Europe: epidemiology and resistance.
Anna Maria Tortorano,Christopher C. Kibbler,Javier Pemán,Hannelore Bernhardt,Lena Klingspor,Renée Grillot +5 more
TL;DR: Large prospective epidemiological surveys using common databases are needed to monitor trends in incidence and changes in species distribution, to identify new at-risk patients and to evaluate the impact of the introduction into the market of new antifungal agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Candidemia at a tertiary-care hospital: epidemiology, treatment, clinical outcome and risk factors for death.
TL;DR: Multivariate analysis indicated that neutropenia, corticosteroid therapy, lack of antifungal treatment, and failure to replace the central venous catheter were factors associated with candidemia-related death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antifungal Susceptibility Testing of Filamentous Fungi
TL;DR: Methods developed for testing filamentous fungi (molds) include standardized broth microdilution methods and disk diffusion methods and the link between resistance molecular mechanisms, elevated MICs, and clinical treatment failure has been documented.
Journal ArticleDOI
An outbreak due to Candida auris with prolonged colonisation and candidaemia in a tertiary care European hospital
Alba Ruiz-Gaitán,Ana María Moret,María Tasias-Pitarch,Ana I Aleixandre-López,Héctor Rolando Martínez-Morel,Eva Calabuig,Miguel Salavert-Lletí,Paula Ramirez,José Luis López-Hontangas,Ferry Hagen,Jacques F. Meis,Juan Bautista Mollar-Maseres,Javier Pemán +12 more
TL;DR: Despite antifungal treatment, high mortality and late complication rates were recorded, and molecular typing suggested a clonal outbreak different from those previously published.
