Abstract:

Objective To explore the characteristics and drug resisitance of Candida infection in our hospital from Jan.2012 to Oct.2014,to provide aetiological basis for clinical rational use of antifungal agents.Methods Retrospective investigation and analysis method were used in this study.Results A total of 1 135 Candida strains were detected,most of which were C.albicans,followed by C.tropicalis,C.glabrataa,C.parapsilosis and C.krusei.Mainly from the older population,Candida distribution had obvious difference in differentage groups (P<0.05);Men more than women (P<0.05).With sputum specimen was the most,urine second,blood in the third it showed obvious difference in specimen source distribution (P<0.05).Candida infections were mainly from patients with digestive diseases and lung disease.The sensitivity to fluconazol,voriconazole,itraconazole and amphotericin B had statistically difference in different Candida (P<0.05) while the sensitivity to fluorouracil was not statistically significant (P>0.05).Conclusion Candida albicans is the main pathogen of fungal infection followed by tropical Candida.Elderly patients and lung disease patients should guard Candida infections.Fungal isolation,identification and efficacy monitoring are very important to guide clinical rational drug using.Clinical antifungal therapy should be based on the results of strain identification and antifungal susceptibility test.
