Emergence of Candida auris in Vietnam: A case series.
Candida auris (C. auris), a globally emerging pathogen, has posed a significant threat to hospitalized individuals during the COVID-19 in Vietnam. This case series reported (1) common patterns in five patients with non-multidrug-resistant C. auris infections (multiple comorbidities, severe-to-critical illness, use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, or history of surgery/invasive procedures) and (2) high rate of C. auris-associated mortality in this medical setting (four deaths out of five cases). Further studies are needed to (1) identify risk factors for C. auris infections and mortality and (2) investigate the effects of screening and preventive measures for C. auris, especially in low-resource settings.
期刊介绍:
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports (indexed in PubMed Central) is a peer reviewed, open access journal. It aims to provide a publication home for short case reports and case series, which often do not find a place in traditional primary research journals, but provide key insights into real medical cases that are essential for physicians, and may ultimately help to improve patient outcomes. SAGE Open Medical Case Reports does not limit content due to page budgets or thematic significance. Papers are subject to rigorous peer review and are selected on the basis of whether the research is sound and deserves publication. By virtue of not restricting papers to a narrow discipline, SAGE Open Medical Case Reports facilitates the discovery of the connections between papers, whether within or between disciplines. Case reports can span the full spectrum of medicine across the health sciences in the broadest sense, including: Allergy/Immunology Anaesthesia/Pain Cardiovascular Critical Care/ Emergency Medicine Dentistry Dermatology Diabetes/Endocrinology Epidemiology/Public Health Gastroenterology/Hepatology Geriatrics/Gerontology Haematology Infectious Diseases Mental Health/Psychiatry Nephrology Neurology Nursing Obstetrics/Gynaecology Oncology Ophthalmology Orthopaedics/Rehabilitation/Occupational Therapy Otolaryngology Palliative Medicine Pathology Pharmacoeconomics/health economics Pharmacoepidemiology/Drug safety Psychopharmacology Radiology Respiratory Medicine Rheumatology/ Clinical Immunology Sports Medicine Surgery Toxicology Urology Women''s Health.
