Emerging Invasive Fungal Infections in Critically Ill Patients (EIFI)

November 23, 2020 updated by: University Hospital, Montpellier

Emerging Invasive Fungal Infections in Critically Ill Patients: Epidemiological Trends, Clinical Features and Outcomes

Rationale: Beside Candida and Aspergillus, emerging invasive fungal infections (EIFIs) are increasing in intensive care setting and are associated with high morbidity and mortality. However, data are scarce, particularly in ICU settings and for EIFIs other than mucormycosis.

Objectives: to describe epidemiological trends and clinical features of EIFIs in intensive care units (ICU) and to assess their outcome.

Methods: All records of adult patients diagnosed with an EIFI in a medical ICU between 2006 and 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. In-ICU mortality was assessed, then factors associated with mortality were identified. Survival at day-90 was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method.
