RETROSPECTIVE ASSESSMENT OF FUNGAL INFECTION AT TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL: Retrospective Evaluation of Fungal Pathogens and Associated Clinical Characteristics in a Tertiary Care Hospital - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Fungal infections constitute a significant and emerging public health concern, particularly in hospitalized and immunocompromised patients. The increasing incidence of invasive and opportunistic mycoses in tertiary care hospitals has created substantial challenges in diagnosis, treatment, and infection control practices. Factors such as prolonged hospitalization, extensive use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, immunosuppressive therapy, diabetes mellitus, malignancy, intensive care unit admissions, and the growing prevalence of antimicrobial resistance have contributed to the rising burden of fungal diseases worldwide. A retrospective assessment of fungal infections in a tertiary care hospital provides valuable insight into the epidemiological distribution, clinical manifestations, causative fungal pathogens, and associated risk factors among affected patients. Such studies are essential for understanding local trends in fungal infections and for evaluating laboratory diagnostic practices and antifungal susceptibility patterns.
