Epidemiological and genotypic analysis of Candida albicans outbreak in a neonatal ward.

BMC infectious diseases - 21 May 2026

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Candida albicans is the primary pathogen responsible for candidemia, particularly in hospital settings, and is often associated with outbreaks in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). In this study, we aimed to investigate the transmission dynamics and identify the potential source of a C. albicans candidemia outbreak in an NICU, focusing on neonates at high risk of infection. METHODS: This...
