Current trends on antifungal prophylaxis in solid organ transplantation: a study from ESCMID-EFISG, ESCMID-ESGICH, SITA, and SEIMC-GESITRA-IC.
Introduction: Invasive fungal diseases (IFD) present serious risks to solid organ transplant recipients, particularly in the first 180 days post-transplant. Existing European and US guidelines offer limited evidence, prompting a shift away from universal prophylaxis due to adverse effects, drug-interactions, and costs. This study investigates antifungal prophylaxis practices in transplant centers to guide IFD management.
Methods: From May 2023 to May 2024, tertiary care institutions completed an online survey on antifungal prophylaxis post-transplant. Data included transplant volumes, IFD incidence by pathogen, and prophylactic strategies.
Results: Responses from 64 centers in 32 countries, mainly in Europe, highlighted kidney and liver as the most common transplants. Prophylaxis was universal in lung transplants and common in liver, bowel, and heart transplants, often triggered by reintervention or Candida spp. colonization. Preferred agents included liposomal amphotericin B and fluconazole.
Conclusions: This global survey reveals substantial variation in antifungal prophylaxis practices among solid organ transplant centers, driven by a lack of standardized, evidence-based guidelines. Our findings underscore the urgent need for harmonized recommendations that reflect evolving fungal epidemiology, improved diagnostics, and new antifungal agents.
期刊介绍:
Infection is a journal dedicated to serving as a global forum for the presentation and discussion of clinically relevant information on infectious diseases. Its primary goal is to engage readers and contributors from various regions around the world in the exchange of knowledge about the etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of infectious diseases, both in outpatient and inpatient settings.
The journal covers a wide range of topics, including:
Etiology: The study of the causes of infectious diseases.
Pathogenesis: The process by which an infectious agent causes disease.
Diagnosis: The methods and techniques used to identify infectious diseases.
Treatment: The medical interventions and strategies employed to treat infectious diseases.
Public Health: Issues of local, regional, or international significance related to infectious diseases, including prevention, control, and management strategies.
Hospital Epidemiology: The study of the spread of infectious diseases within healthcare settings and the measures to prevent nosocomial infections.
In addition to these, Infection also includes a specialized "Images" section, which focuses on high-quality visual content, such as images, photographs, and microscopic slides, accompanied by brief abstracts. This section is designed to highlight the clinical and diagnostic value of visual aids in the field of infectious diseases, as many conditions present with characteristic clinical signs that can be diagnosed through inspection, and imaging and microscopy are crucial for accurate diagnosis. The journal's comprehensive approach ensures that it remains a valuable resource for healthcare professionals and researchers in the field of infectious diseases.
