Deep Fungal Isolates from Hospital-acquired Infection in Tumor Patients after Chemotherapy / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the pattern of fungal isolates from hospital-acquired infection in tumor patients after chemotherapy. METHODS The clinical information of fungus isolates from 102 tumor patients after chemotherapy was investigated.We analyzed the risk factors,species and drug-resistance of isolates. RESULTS The lower respiratory tract and mouth infection accounted for 61.8% and 16.7% in 102 cases with fungal infection and 102 isolates were isolated from various clinical specimens.Among above 102 isolates,Candida albicans and C.tropicalis accounted for 71.6% and 14.7%.The resistant rate of C.albicans to fluconazole and miconazole were 96.2% and 61.4%,respectively. CONCLUSIONS Hospital-acquired infection resulted from fungi in tumor patients after chemotherapy is related to primary tumor,age,the amount of white cell and use of antibiotics.
