Abstract: Objective To investigate the epidemiology of fungemia and provide evidence for clinical therapy.Methods A retrospective survey was conducted with 42 cases of fungemia in our hospital from Jan 2002 to Jan 2011.Results Forty cases candida fungemia accounted for 95.2％ in 42 fugemia.The main pathogen agent was non-Candida albicans in candida fungemia,which were candida albicans(14.3％),candida parapsilosis (38.1％),candida glabrata (35.7 ％),candida tropicalis (2.4％).Eleven uneffecfive cases accounted for 26.2％.Multiple-factor analysis showed that neutropenia time ＞ 7 days,antibiotic using time ＞ 7 days and fungal infection history correlated with bad prognosis.Our study also showed that chemotherapy regiments including hormone、combining with other organs fungal infection and non-Candida albicans were risk factors of bad prognosis.Conclusion The main pathogen agent of fungimia is candida,especially non-Candida albicans.Neutropenia time ＞ 7 days,antibiotic using time ＞ 7 days and fungal infection history correlate with poor prognosis.
