Abstract:
Invasive fungal disease(IFD) is one of the causes leading to death in intensive care unit,and now more likely to occur in non-neutropenic critically ill patients.Early diagnosis and appropriate selection of patients at high risk of IFD to receive prophylactic antifungal therapy are of great concern.Risk factors related to IFD were established by multivariable analysis and then risk evaluation models were developed.Candida score could accurately select patients who would benefit from early antifungal treatment.Evaluation and validation of risk models for non-neutropenic critically ill patients at high risk of IFD were reviewed in this article.
