Abstract

With rates of ECMO utilization on the rise, prevention of nosocomial infections is of paramount importance. Candida auris, an emerging highly pathogenic multidrug resistant fungus, is of particular concern as it is associated with persistent colonization of environmental surfaces, inability to be recognized by many diagnostic platforms, inconsistent laboratory susceptibility results, and high mortality rates. We describe a case of C. auris in a VV-ECMO patient successfully managed with a combination of anidulafungin, amphotericin B, and flucytosine.

体外生命支持期间念珠菌的治疗:病例报告。
随着 ECMO 使用率的上升,预防院内感染至关重要。白色念珠菌是一种新出现的高致病性多药耐药真菌,与环境表面的持续定植、许多诊断平台无法识别、实验室药敏结果不一致以及高死亡率有关,因此尤其令人担忧。我们描述了一例 VV-ECMO 患者的阿糖胞苷病例,该病例通过联合使用阿尼芬净、两性霉素 B 和氟尿嘧啶得到了成功控制。
