Abstract

Background and Objectives: The study aimed to investigate the Epidemiology and clinical therapy of Candidemia in burn patients hospitalized in Velayat Hospital, Rasht, Iran.
Materials and Methods: The blood samples of suspected patients were cultured and PCR-sequencing was performed. Antifungal susceptibility testing was done by the CLSI M27-A4 document.
Results: Four blood samples were identified as positive. Candida parapsilosis complex (3 out of 4, 75%) was the predominant leading cause of Candidemia. MIC values showed that all isolates were susceptible to itraconazole, amphotericin B, and 5-flucytosine.
Conclusion: It seems necessary to pay attention to Candida non-albicans species in antifungal therapy.
