Preventing invasive fungal infection during hospital building works.

C C Chang1, E Athan, C O Morrissey, M A Slavin.   

Abstract

Hospital building works increase the risk of invasive fungal infections. Nosocomial outbreaks have been reported. A pre-emptive strategy for planned building works is paramount. The roles of HEPA filtration, air-sampling and modulation of 'routine' antifungal prophylaxis practice are discussed in the context of pre-emptive planning and outbreak management.
