Evaluation of Candidemia Due to Uncommon Candida Species in Children: A Multicenter Retrospective Study
UCS candidemia in children most commonly occurred in patients with solid-hematologic malignancy, central venous catheters and recent antibiotic exposure within 1 week. Female sex, prolonged pre-infection hospitalization, intensive care-related interventions, thrombocytopenia, lower CVC removal rate and elevated C-reactive protein were associated with increased short-term mortality.
