Invasive fungal infections are clinically problematic to manage due to a limited arsenal of antifungal agents and diagnostics that lack speed, accuracy, and are often prohibitively expensive to implement in routine clinical laboratories. This presentation will provide an understanding of invasive fungal pathogens, specifically Candida spp., in the critical care environment, its importance as a key bloodstream pathogen, how it causes infection, and considerations for diagnosis, speed of antifungal treatments and implications for biofilm related infections.
