Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: infection, whereas amphotericin B deoxycholate is preferred for neonates and young infants. Antifungal susceptibility testing should be performed whenever invasive infection is suspected, although initiation of empirical therapy should not be delayed while awaiting results. Treatment should be reassessed according to susceptibility results, infection sites, and clinical response, with specialist consultation for refractory or complicated infections. These recommendations are based on the currently available evidence and epidemiology, warranting continued surveillance of epidemiologic changes and emerging clinical data.
