Peritoneal 1.3-ß-D-glucan for the Diagnosis of Intra-abdominal Candidiasis in Critically Ill Patients (pBDG2)

Prospective Evaluation of 1.3-ß-D-glucan in the Peritoneal Fluid for the Diagnosis of Fungal Peritonitis in Critically Ill Patients

New rapid diagnostic strategies are warranted in intra-abdominal candidiasis (IAC). A previous retrospective study showed that one measure, the day of the surgery, of peritoneal 1.3-Beta-D-Glucan ? 310pg/ml could rule out an IAC. This strategy was independent of the patient underlying conditions and Candida risk factors. This study aimed to confirm these results with a multicenter prospective study
