Putting the Fun in Fungi - A Fun Guide to New Antifungals
The Candicep trial is looking at beta D glucan guided antifungal therapy in intensive care medicine. This was a multi center randomized controlled trial between September 2016 through September 2019 they enrolled in 18 ICUs adult patients only.
