Candida auris is identified as an emerging pathogen worldwide. It is multidrug resistant and causes invasive healthcare-associated infections. Our retrospective study was conducted to determine the prevalence and epidemiology of C. auris infections in a tertiary care hospital in Jaipur. 24 clinical C. auris strains were included, most being from urine. The majority patients needed intensive care and had at least one underlying co-morbid condition. A history of broad-spectrum antibiotic or antifungal usage was present in 85%. Fluconazole, voriconazole, amphotericin B and 5-fluorocytosine resistance was seen in 96, 42, 33 and 8% isolates respectively. No echinocandin resistance was noted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
