IMMUNOCANDIDA: Candida Host Defense Response After Septic Shock in the Critically Ill
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Septic shock is associated with acquired immunoparalysis which is associated with a high risk of nosocomial acquired infection. Nosocomial candidiasis is associated with a 50% rate of mortality but is difficult to diagnose. The use of colonization indexes and risk factors on the other hand expose to unnecessary use of antifungals. The aim of the present study is to evaluate whether the host response to infection associated with candida biomarkers would help to anticipate the candidiasis onset.

Detailed Description
Single center prospective observationnal study. Inclusion: all consecutive patients subsequently to a septic shock with no Candida infection.
Measured parameters: host response (HLADR, CD64, inflammatory cytokines consecutive to LPS exposition) and Candida biomarkers (beta D Glucan, Mannan Ag and Ig), demographics, outcome (occurence of Candida nosocomial infection, morbidity and survival)

Arms and Interventions

---|---|
Septic shock and candidiasis The realized analyses will be two types: 1/an immunological analysis that is the characterization of the capacities of defense against germs and 2/a search(research) of Candida by microscopic examination and culture on circles of growth but also the research for the genome of the mushroom by a state-of-the-art technique of the laboratory of mycology ( PCR). Usual takings of research for bacteria. |
Diagnostic Test: Candidiasis infection occurence
