Risk Factors for Invasive Candidiasis Use of antibacterials Neutropenia Colonization Damaged mucosa The catheter Underlying Diseases Host factors Medical interventions Candida colonization
Risk Factors for Invasive Candidiasis Host factors Medical interventions Candida colonization 1.Extremes of age 2.Neutropenia 3.Renal failure 4.Higher APACHE II score 5.Trauma/burns 6.Bowel perforation 1.Chemotherapy 2.Dialysis 3.Central venous catheters 4.Antibiotic use (risk increases with each additional antibiotic) 5.Parenteral nutrition 6.Prior surgery (especially abdominal) 7.Length of ICU stay of 7 days 8.Nasogastric tubes 9.Gastric acid suppression
Diagnostic Tests for Invasive CandidiasisCultureHistologyAntigenAntibody Enolase mannan PCR 1-3-β-D-glucan C-reactive protein (CRP) Procalcitonin (PCT) Interleukin-6 (IL-6) Colonization Infection Invasion
Early Antifungal Intervention Strategies in ICU Patients Risk factors without evidence for colonization Prophylaxis Risk factors and colonization with Candida in the absence of symptoms Preemptive therapy Symptoms suggesting sepsis and risk factors before the documentation of infection Empirical therapy Antifungal therapy Crit Care Med 2010; 38[Suppl.]:S380 –S387
