Epidemiology, Risk Factors and Clinical Outcome of Candidaemia: <i>A decade-long experience at a university hospital in Oman</i>

This study found an increasing trend of non-<i>albicans Candida.</i> Diabetes was the most identified risk factor for candidaemia. A relatively low rate of initiation of empirical antifungal therapy in at-risk patients was found. Unacceptably high mortality rates and prolonged hospital stay of patients with candidaemia are a call for action.
