Detailed Description
-
Patients corresponding to inclusion criteria and obtaining informed consent are included in the research in department of respiration ward in cooperative hospitals.
-
Relevant case report forms are created in this study.
-
Basic information such as age,weight and height is recorded in selected cases.Clinical manifestations,risk factors,laboratory examination,imaging examination,etiological examination and histopathological examination are also recorded in selected cases by case report forms.In addition,antifungal treatment is recorded including name,dose,time of starting treatment and terminate treatment.Causes of terminate treatment and curative effect evaluation should be analysed.
-
Statistical analysis.
Study Design
Outcome Measures
