[Prevention of invasive candidiasis in the critically ill non neutropenic patient]. / Medidas de prevención de la candidiasis invasora en el paciente crítico no neutropénico.

ABSTRACT

Prevention of invasive candidiasis (IC) in the setting of critically ill non neutropenic patients should be based on evidenced-based recommendations, namely improved hand hygiene, optimal catheter care, and rational and reduced use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. Concomitant interventions aimed at reducing risk factors are important to decrease IC.
