Abstract
Early administration of antifungal drugs was not a substantial component of total hospital costs. However, there was a significant adverse impact on costs with increasing LOS in febrile patients in ICU for whom diagnosis of fungaemia was delayed before starting SAT, and with initial treatment failure. Awareness of potential candidaemia and initiation of pre-emptive or empirical strategy as early appropriate treatment may improve ICU patient outcomes while reducing direct medical costs.
