Eligibility Criteria
Patients with Candida bloodstream infection, peritonitis/intra-abdominal abscess, and pleural empyema
You may qualify if:
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent. If the subject is unable to consent for himself/herself, a legally authorized representative must provide informed consent on his/her behalf.
- Males or females ≥18 years of age
- Patients having one or more systemic signs attributable to candidemia or invasive candidiasis (fever, hypothermia, hypotension, tachycardia, tachypnea, local signs of inflammation).
- Isolation of Candida from blood, intra-abdominal abscess/peritoneal fluid or pleural fluid.
You may not qualify if:
- Severe neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count \<500 cells/microL)
- Profound lymphopenia (\<300 cells/microL)
- The Principal Investigator (PI) is of the opinion the subject should not participate in the study.
- Females who are pregnant.
