Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hospital Mortality

    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 Outcomes (4)

  • ICU Mortality

    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

    date of extubtation minus date of intubation

  • Length of Stay in the ICU

    date of discharge from ICU minus date of admission to ICU

  • Length of Stay in the Hospital

    date of discharge from hospital minus date of admission to hospital

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.

You may qualify if:

  • 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

You may not qualify if:

  • 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.
