PREVALENCE OF ASPERGILLUS FUMIGATUS ISOLATED FROM PATIENTS INDICATED FOR PATHOGENIC FUNGAL TESTING AT THE NATIONAL LUNG HOSPITAL IN 2023
Nội dung chính của bài viết
Tóm tắt
Objectives: To describe the prevalence of Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) infection in patients indicated for pathogenic fungal testing at the National Lung Hospital in 2023.
Subjects and methods: Patients are assigned to undergo fungal testing at the National Lung Hospital in 2023. Cross-sectional descriptive study.
Results and conclusions: Of the 26,301 patients who were indicated for fungal testing, 817 (3.11%) of patients had positive fungal culture and identification results for A. fumigatus. Of which, 787 (96.33%) patients were only infected with A. fumigatus and 30 (3.67%) cases were co-infected with A. fumigatus with another fungal species. The proportion of men dominated 83.48%, women accounted for 16.52%. The median age of the patients was 65.19 ± 12.92. In which, the age group from 61 - 80 accounts for the largest proportion with 63.28%. The isolation rate of A. fumigatus in sputum specimens was mainly (71.4%), followed by bronchial fluid (25.4%), and other specimens accounted for a small proportion (< 1%). The isolation rate of A. fumigatus fungi in the departments of the National Lung Hospital was mainly found in the Respiratory Department (24.3%), ranked second in the Emergency Department (17.3%).
