Characteristics and Management of Candidaemia Episodes in an Established Candida auris Outbreak	2020-08-30		.txt	text/plain	4238	206	47	An increase in the prevalence of Candida bloodstream infections (candidaemia) and a shift in the epidemiology have been observed in recent years, especially since the emergence of the multidrug-resistant yeast Candida auris [1] . This yeast is considered a growing menace to global health for several reasons, which include its resistance to multiple commonly used antifungals, its problematic identification in the laboratory and its facility to spread among patients, causing nosocomial outbreaks, especially in intensive care units (ICU) [4] . Secondly, we analyse the evolution in the Candida species distribution causing candidaemia in our setting since 2011 and the clinical and epidemiological characteristics of all patients diagnosed with C. These infection control practices include the strict isolation/cohorting of cases, decolonisation with chlorhexidine, regular environmental cleaning and the implementation of screening colonisation studies in the high-risk hospital environments such as the ICU.	./cache/cord-284417-pmn6ll1q.txt	./txt/cord-284417-pmn6ll1q.txt
