Résumé
Patients in surgical intensive care units are thought to be at the highest risk for developing candidemia, especially patients undergoing abdominal surgery. The present study aims to investigate risk factors for candidemia in patients with abdominal surgery. A retrospective study was undertaken that involved patients admitted to the surgical ICU between January 2016 and January 2017. All postoperative adult patients (>18 years old) who underwent abdominal surgery were included in this study. During the one-year study period, 49 patients developed candidemia. Thirty-five of Patients undergoing abdominal surgery are at increased risk of candidemia, especially the patients with prolonged intensive care unit/hospital stay and the patients with a central venous catheters.
