Infection until Positive Blood Culture Results Are Obtained: a
Potential Risk Factor for Hospital Mortality
Morrell M, Fraser VJ, Kollef MH, Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2005; 49:3640–5.
Case Study #1
• 39-year-old black man with DM who was
admitted 8 days ago for complications of endstage liver disease, including acute renal failure
and ascites, he also had diffuse lymphadenopathy
of unknown etiology.
• A week before hospitalization, the patient had
been discharged from another hospital, where he
had been admitted because of pancreatitis and
treated for Escherichia coli bacteremia and renal
insufficiency.
Case Study #1 (cont’d)
• On day 8, 1 out of 4 bottles of blood cultures was reported
positive for yeast.
• Patient’s clinical status had deteriorated because of worsening
respiratory distress.

Candidemia: Who do we treat?
Yeast in the blood is
unlikely to be a
contaminant and
always considered true
fungemia
Poor outcome occur
due to secondary
disease (endcarditis,
endophthalmitis)
All patients with
positive blood cultures
should be trated even
if the infection is
rapidly clearing

Case Study #2
• 65 year old patient in the ICU after hemicolectomy
for perforated cecal diverticulitis who was treated
with pip/taz and fluconazole and has been on
ventilator for the past 12 days
• Course was complicated with VAP but sputum
culture showed mixed organisms with candida sp.
Case Study #2 (cont’d)
• Now with fever to 39.0 as well as hypotension (70/40 mm Hg) and
tachycardia (120/,im).
• Physical examination is remarkable for toxic-appearing man who is
orotracheally intubated and sedated.
• He has a triple lumen central venous catheter at the right subclavian vein
site that was inserted 10 days ago for TPN
• The skin is mildly erythematous around the catheter site, but no
tenderness or drainage
Case Study #2 (cont’d)
• Serum creatinine 140
mmol/L, WBC 14,500, 90%
Neutrophils with toxic
granulation
• There is no clinical or
radiographic evidence of
pneumonia, sinusitis or other
source of infection.
• Treated with imipenem and
vancomycin after removing
the line but no improvement
for the past 2 days
How would you approach this case?
A. Repeat cultures and continue same antimicrobial
agents with close observation
B. Add colistin to current antimicrobial agents
C. Add colistin and fluconazole at 400 mg IV daily
D. Add colistin and caspofungin at 70 mg initial dose
then 50 mg daily

Case #4
• 67 year old female with history of COPD and CVA.
• Admitted with COPD exacerbation and has been dependent
on the ventilator for the past 2 weeks
• Developed VAP and sputum culture revealed C. albicans,
treated with Imipenem and vancomycin
• Chest x-ray did not improve, BAL was done and confirmed the
growth of c. albicans
How would you approach the patient?
A.Observation
B.Fluconazole
C.Caspofungin
D.Lipid Formulation Amphotericin B
Candida species isolated from
respiratory secretions?
Growth of Candida from respiratory secretions
rarely indicates invasive candidiasis and should
not be treated with antifungal therapy (A-III)
2008 IDSA Candidiasis Guidelines
Treatment Guidelines for Candidiasis • CID 2009:48 (1 March) • 505
Case #5
Your patient with candidemia who has been started
on caspofungin is stable on mechanical ventilation.
He is sedated and MAAS score is 0-1, his WBC is
decreasing and he has low grade fever.
• Your next step is:
A.
B.
C.
D.
Observation
Change to Fluconazole
Ophthalmic examination
Change to Ampho B
Candida Endophthalmitis
• All patients with candidemia should have
at least 1 dilated retinal examination
early in the course of therapy (A-II).
• Especially in patients who cannot
communicate regarding visual
disturbances.
• AmB-d combined with flucytosine (A-III)
• Fluconazole is an acceptable alternative
for less severe cases (BIII).
• LFAmB, voriconazole, or an echinocandin
for intolerant or treatment failure (B-III)
• At least 4–6 weeks (A-III).
Case #6
• 74 year old male who has
been in the intensive care unit
for the past 8 days intubated
on mechanical ventilation for
acute CVA.
• His urinalysis showed 10-15
WBC and urine culture grew C.
albicans
• Foley catheter is in place
How would you approach the patient?
A. Observation
B. Change Foley catheter and observe
C. Fluconazole
D. Caspofungin
E. Amphoterecin B bladder irrigation
Urinary tract infections due to Candida
species?
• Asymptomatic:
– Treatment is not recommended unless the patient
belongs to a group at high risk of dissemination (A-III).
– Elimination of predisposing factors often results in
resolution of candiduria (A-III).
– High-risk patients include neutropenic patients,
infants with low birth weight, and patients who will
undergo urologic manipulations.
• Symptomatic Cystitis/Pyelonephritis
– Fuconazole
– AmB-d
Summary
•
•
•
•
•
Candida in the blood always requires treatment
General risks are breach in skin or GI tract
Early treatment is the goal
Prophylaxis should be considered in patients at very high risk
Selection of antifungal agent depends on:
–
–
–
–
–
–
•
•
Recent azole exposure
History of intolerance to an antifungal agent
The dominant Candida species and current susceptibility data in a particular unit
Severity of Illness
Relevant comorbidities
Evidence of involvement of the CNS, eye, cardiac valves, and/or visceral organs.
Antifungal therapy is not recommended for asymptomatic UTI associated with
Foley catheter
Growth of Candida from respiratory secretions rarely indicates invasive candidiasis
and should not be treated with antifungal therapy
