Candida species are a common cause of bloodstream and invasive infection in critically ill and immunosuppressed patients. Furthermore, invasive Candida infection carries a poor prognosis and may initially be mistaken for bacterial infection. An article in this issue of the Journal investigates the relationship between adequacy of initial empirical therapy and outcome from invasive Candida infection.
