Coccidiodes sp. Histoplasmosis sp.
4 Percent Species distribution Pappas, 2003 Zaoulis, 2005 Abelson, C. albicans C. parapsilopsis C. glabrata Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2003; 37: Zaoulis TE, et al. Microbiol Infect Dis 2005;52:295-8 Abelson JA, et al. Pediatrics 2005; 116:61-7

9 Risk factors for invasive candidiasis in the intensive care setting Environmental factors Endotracheal intubation Central venous v and arterial lines Urinary catheterisation Parenteral nutrition Prolonged ICU stay Broad-spectrum antibiotics Bacterial infections Immunosuppressive drugs Cancer and chemotherapy Blood transfusions Dialysis Recent surgery (especially GIT) Transplantation Host factors Immunodeficiency Neutropaenia Malignancies Bone marrow transplantation Critical illness Preterm birth Low Apgar score Congenital abnormalities Prior colonisation with Candida spp.
10 Risk factors for invasive candidiasis in the intensive care setting Environmental factors Endotracheal intubation Central venous and arterial lines Urinary catheterisation Parenteral nutrition Prolonged ICU stay Broad-spectrum antibiotics Bacterial infections Immunosuppressive drugs Cancer and chemotherapy Blood transfusions Dialysis Recent surgery (especially GIT) Transplantation Host factors Immunodeficiency Neutropaenia Malignancies Bone marrow transplantation Critical illness Preterm birth Congenital abnormalities Prior colonisation with Candida spp.

12 Corrected colonisation index Candida colonisation index (CCI) CCI = number of distinct body sites positive for Candida spp. total sites tested * CCI > 0.5: identified infected patients Corrected Colonisation Index = CCI x number of sites with heavy candida growth Eggimann P, 2006 Snydman DR, 2003
13 Pathophysiology of invasive candidiasis Adhesion Colonisation Exogenous Diabetes Neutropenia Burns Antibiotics Invasion Antibiotics Vascular access Parenteral nutrition ICU stay > 7 days Candida colonisation Renal failure Major abdominal surgery Endogenous Candidaemia 0.5-1/1000 admissions (10% of bacteraemia) 35% survival Dissemination 35% die from candidaemia 35% die from underlying disease Modified from Eggimann P, et al. Lancet Infect Dis 2003;3:
14 Diagnosis Difficult to diagnose 20% have no fever 20-30% diagnosed at postmortem autopsy
15 Diagnosis Positive blood culture from a normally sterile site Positive only in 50-60% cases (even with disseminated infection) Histologically positive biopsy specimen Not routinely carried out
16 Surface colonisation vs invasive disease Positive endotracheal tube secretions Immune status? Lung opacities? Candiduria Immune status? Remove urinary catheter Repeat urine culture Ultrasound kidneys Blood culture
17 Diagnosis Candida Fungal wall elements (β-d glucan, mannan, β 1-3 glucan) PCR assays Aspergillus High resolution CT scan Serological and molecular techniques Jones BL, et al. Curr Opin Infect Dis 2003;16:521-6
18 Diagnosis
19 When to treat? Septic patients Profound immunosuppression Specimens positive for Candida Asymptomatic Non-neutropaenic
20 Time to starting antifungal therapy and mortality Morrell M, et al. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2005;49: Garey KW, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2006;43:25-31
21 Antifungal therapies in critical care settings Prophylactic Pre-emptive Empirical Curative Targeted prophylaxis Targeted empirical No colonisation data needed Proof of infection Sign of sepsis Candida colonisation Risk factors
22 Prophylaxis Administration of antifungals to patients at high risk Organ-transplanted patients Immunocompromised with expected long-term neutropaenia Non-immunocompromised patients High risk of invasive candidiasis (frequency of candidiasis >10%) Expected long ICU stay Prolonged mechanical ventilation Eggimann P, et al. Lancet Infect Dis 2003;3: Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;38:161-89
23 Antifungal agents for preventing fungal infections in non-neutropenic critically ill patients Reduce fungal infections by one-half Reduce mortality by one-quarter Playford GE, et al. J Antimicrob Chemother 2006;57:628-38
24 Antifungal therapies in critical care settings Prophylactic Pre-emptive Empirical Curative Targeted prophylaxis Targeted empirical No colonisation data needed Proof of infection Sign of sepsis Candida colonisation Risk factors
25 Pre-emptive therapy Early administration of antifungal treatment Evidence of substantial colonisation Presence of multiple risk factors Eggimann P, et al. Lancet Infect Dis 2003;3: Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;38:161-89
26 Candida score bedside scoring system Predictors of proven Candida infection Multifocal Candida colonisation (1 pt) Total parenteral nutrition (1 pt) Surgery upon ICU admission (1pt) Severe sepsis (2 points) Sensitivity 81% Specificity 76% Cut-off score > fold increased likelihood of IC (95% CI, ) Leon C, et al. Crit Care Med 2006;34:730-7 Hollenbach E. Mycoses 2008;51:25-45
27 Pre-emptive therapy Early administration of antifungal treatment Evidence of substantial colonisation Presence of multiple risk factors Risk of severe candidiasis outweighs potential side-effects and emergence of resistant strains Eggimann P, et al. Lancet Infect Dis 2003;3: Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;38:161-89
28 Antifungal therapies in critical care settings Prophylactic Pre-emptive Empirical Curative Targeted prophylaxis Targeted empirical No colonisation data needed Proof of infection Sign of sepsis Candida colonisation Risk factors
29 Empiric therapy Treatment of high risk patients who exhibit signs and symptoms of disease even in the absence of positive cultures or evidence of disease For critically ill patients with risk factors for invasive candidiasis persistent fever with no other known cause found multiple organ dysfunction Eggimann P, et al. Lancet Infect Dis 2003;3: Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;38:161-89
30 Empiric therapy Should be based on clinical assessment of risk factors serologic markers for invasive candidiasis culture data from nonsterile sites Eggimann P, et al. Lancet Infect Dis 2003;3: Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;38:161-89
31 Empiric therapy Fluconazole Echinocandins Moderate to severe disease Recent exposure to azole At high risk of infection with C. glabrata or C. krusei Amphotericin B Intolerance to or limited availability of other antifungals Eggimann P, et al. Lancet Infect Dis 2003;3: Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;38:161-89
32 Treatment of candidaemia in non-neutropaenic patients Selection of agents History of recent azole exposure History of intolerance to an antifungal agent Dominant Candida species Current susceptibility data in clinical location Severity of illness Relevant comorbidities Evidence of CNS, cardiac valves and/or visceral involvement Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;48:503-35
33 Antifungal choices Polyenes Amphotericin B ABLC, ABCD, AmBisome Liposomal nystatin Echinocandins Caspofungin Micafungin Anidulafungin Aminocandin Azoles Fluconazole Itraconazole Voriconazole Posaconazole Ravuconazole
34 Fluconazole First line therapy mild to moderate illness (ie haemodynamically stable) no previous exposure to azoles do not belong in a group at high risk of C. glabrata Not for patients with candidaemia and suspected concomitant endocardial or CNS involvement Step-down therapy for infections with organisms likely to be susceptible Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;48:503-35
35 Echinocandins Significant fungicidal activity Favourable safety profile Few drug interactions Initial therapy recent exposure to an azole moderately severe to severe disease allergy or intolerance to azoles or AmB high risk of infection with C. krusei and C. glabrata Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;48:503-35
36 Amphotericin Initial therapy alternative therapy unavailable or unaffordable history of intolerance to echinocandins or azoles infection refractory to other therapy organism is resistant to other agents suspected infection with non-candida yeast eg Cryptococcus neoformans Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;48:503-35
37 Treatment of Non-Candida albicans candidaemia C. parasilopsis Fluconazole? Less responsive to echinocandin C. glabrata Echinocandin Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;48:503-35
38 Other measures Removal of vascular lines Dilated fundoscopic examination
39 Duration of therapy 14 days after resolution of symptoms clearance of Candida species from bloodstream pertains to all systemic antifungal therapy (including sequential therapy with AmB or echinocandin followed by an azole) Pappas PG, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2009;48:503-35
40 Prevention Optimal placement of central venous catheter and care Hand washing Strict control of antimicrobial use
41 Summary invasive candidiasis Cause of substantial morbidity and mortality Trend towards increasing numbers of infections caused by non-albicans Candida species Prophylaxis vs preemptive vs empirical therapy Choice of antifungal agent depends on local epidemiologic and patient factors
42 Conclusion Past Fungal infections rare Difficult to diagnose Limited treatment options Present Fungal infections more common Still difficult to diagnose More treatments available Future Diagnostics Risk identification Assessment of management strategies
