What is Opportunistic Fungal Infections in ICU about?
Fungal infections, although less common than bacterial infections, are increasingly prevalent in critical care units, particularly among immunocompromised patients. Diagnosis is challenging and often leads to higher mortality rates, with Candida being the most frequent cause of nosocomial fungal infections. Key risk factors include prolonged ICU stays, use of invasive devices, and underlying health conditions such as HIV/AIDS and diabetes.
