DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofab466.518
Abstract: Abstract Background Candidemia is a rare but serious complication of SARS-CoV-2 hospitalization. Combining non-culture and culture-based diagnostics allows earlier identification of candidemia. Given higher reported incidence during COVID-19 surges, we investigated the use of (1-3)-β-D-glucan… read more here.
