Objective: The aims of this study were to evaluate the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of candidemia in a typical burn ICU, and to determine the risk factors associated with candidemia among major burn patients.Method: This retrospective observational study of candidemia from 2012 to 2017 in a burn ICU was conducted in the Department of Burn, Southwest hospital, Chongqing, China.Results: The study included 410 major burn patients (>= 40% total body surface area), 39 (9.51%) of which were diagnosed with candidemia. The annual incidences of candidemia varied from 6.06% to 17.54%, and increased gradually in the 6 years. Candida parapsilosis was the dominant pathogen (28.21% strains). The overall resistance rate of Candida spp. to fluconazole was 35.89%. Candidemia cases most frequently occurred in the 2nd (30.77%) and 3rd (23.08%) weeks after burn, and intravascular catheters were the most common sources of bloodstream Candida infections (31.58%). The crude mortality of candidemia was 23.08%, and the mortality attributable to candidemia was 14.99%. Risk factors of candidemia included inhalation injury, renal dysfunction with replacement therapy, severe gastrointestinal complications, T-cell lymphopenia and prior Candida colonization.Conclusion: Candidemia has a high incidence and mortality in major burn patients. The changes in etiology and drug sensitivity may make new challenges for the management of candidemia in burn ICUs. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd and ISBI. All rights reserved.
