Abstract:
Objective To analyze 137 cases of clinical invasive fungal infection (IFI), and to sum up clinical experiences in the treatment of early anti-fungal. Methods 137 patients with 91 males and 46 females, who suffered from invasive fungal infection in ICU from January 1, 2000 to June 30, 2006, were enrolled in this study. The age ranged from 17 to 82 years. Among 137 patients with IFI, the respective incidence of infection of Candida albicans, Candida glabirate, Candida tropicalis and Candida parapsilosis was 47.4%, 26.3%, 20.4% and 3.6%. The sputum, urine, blood and other excreta were collected for examination three days after admission and then every three days. Results Out of the 137 patients, 42 patients were complicated with hemorrhage (30.7%), 53 patients developed candida rash in the chest, abdomen and extremity (38.7%), and 49 patients developed organ dysfunction (35.8%). The chest films revealed that infiltration caused by IFI mainly occurred in the apex of lung in some patients. 137 patients were treated with fluconazole at first, and among them, 64 patients were cured. The cure rate was 46.7%. 39 patients out of 61 patients treated with Amphotericin B(AmB) or lipid AmB were cured. The cure rate was 63.9%. 11 patients were treated with voriconazole and 6 patients were cured. The cure rate was 54.5%. 28 patients failed to respond to the above therapy and died.The mortality was 20.4%. Conclusion The clinical symptons of IFI included hemorrhage, candida rash, organ dysfunction, and infiltration in apex of lung. Fluconazole and amphotericin B(AmB) or lipid AmB still have a good curative effect on invasive fungal infection.
