[Therapeutic strategies in intensive care units].
Severe Candida infections are frequent in intensive care units and difficult to diagnose. Various antifungal agents can be used to treat Candida severe infections, but the choice of the most adapted treatment strategy is difficult. According to different guidelines, it must be based on the efficacy and tolerance of the drug, but also on patient risk stratification and local epidemiology. A practical diagnostic approach will help to determine which patients will benefit from prophylaxis and empiric therapy.
