¿Qué es Candida auris, clinical?

Candida auris was first identified in 2009 in Japan from an ear canal infection, though retrospective studies suggest earlier isolates. Its global emergence since then, particularly its multidrug resistance and ability to cause outbreaks, has made it a significant public health concern.

Síntomas

  • Fever and chills that do not improve with antibiotic treatment (common for bloodstream infections).
  • Wound infections: Redness, swelling, pain, pus, poor healing.
  • Ear infections: Ear pain, drainage, hearing loss.
  • General signs of severe illness: Organ dysfunction if the infection spreads internally.

Transmisión

Candida auris primarily spreads through direct contact with colonized or infected individuals, often via the contaminated hands of healthcare workers. It can also be transmitted indirectly by contact with contaminated environmental surfaces or shared medical equipment, as it can persist on surfaces for prolonged periods.

Período de Contagio: Varies by disease

Prevención

  • Strict adherence to hand hygiene (soap and water or alcohol-based hand rub) by healthcare workers.
  • Thorough and consistent environmental cleaning and disinfection in healthcare facilities.
  • Use of contact precautions (gloves and gowns) for patients colonized or infected with C. auris.
  • Rapid identification and isolation of affected patients to prevent spread.
  • No vaccine is currently available.
