Invasive Candidiasis in Critically Ill Patients in Saudi Arabia: A Prospective Cohort Study

Epidemiology and clinical outcomes of invasive candidiasis in critically ill patients in Saudi Arabia is not well studied. This observational study objectives include to determine the epidemiology, risk factors and outcomes of invasive Candida infection in critically ill patients in Saudi Arabia.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

All adult patients (> 18 years) admitted to the ICUs of these centers will be evaluated for the occurrence of Candida infection and followed to discharge or death in ICU. The duration of the study will be 12 months. Also patients who had invasive candidiasis within 72 hours of ICU admission will be included.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • adult patients (> 18 years)
  • develop invasive candidiasis as per prespecified definitions during ICU stay
  • In addition, patients who had invasive candidiasis within 72 hours of ICU admission will be included

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis of invasive candidiasis (definite or probable) more than 72 hours before ICU admission.
  • Diagnosis of invasive candidiasis (definite or probable) within 72 hours of ICU admission, but the admission to ICU for an unrelated reason.
  • Readmission to the ICU during the same hospitalization with invasive candidiasis occurring during one of the previous admissions.

Design Details

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hospital Mortality
Time Frame: Patients will be followed while in the ICU and the vital status at the time of discharge from the ICU will be noted. The expected stay in the ICU is 10 days on average.
For patients staying in the ICU for long periods, hospital mortality will be censored at 180 days after entry into the study.That is patient staying alive in the hospital more than 180 days will be considered alive.
Patients will be followed while in the ICU and the vital status at the time of discharge from the ICU will be noted. The expected stay in the ICU is 10 days on average.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
ICU Mortality
Time Frame: patients will be followed until discharge from the hospital and vital status at discharge from the hospital will be noted (expected hospital stay is 5 weeks). Hopsital mortality will be censored at 180 days after entry into the study.
If patients are still alive in the ICU at 180 days after entring the sudy, they will be considered ICU survivors.
patients will be followed until discharge from the hospital and vital status at discharge from the hospital will be noted (expected hospital stay is 5 weeks). Hopsital mortality will be censored at 180 days after entry into the study.
Duration of Mechanical Ventilation
Time Frame: date of extubtation minus date of intubation
If multiple intubations in the same admission, then the durations of mechanical ventilation will be added.This will be assessed for up to 180 days of stay in the ICU.
date of extubtation minus date of intubation
Length of Stay in the ICU
Time Frame: date of discharge from ICU minus date of admission to ICU
Patients will be followed for up to 180 days.Patinets alive in the ICU beyond 180 days of stay will have an ICU length of stay of 180 days.
date of discharge from ICU minus date of admission to ICU
Length of Stay in the Hospital
Time Frame: date of discharge from hospital minus date of admission to hospital
Patients will be followed for up to 180 days.Patinets alive in the hospital beyond 180 days of stay will have a hospital length of stay of 180 days.
date of discharge from hospital minus date of admission to hospital

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
August 1, 2012

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
