Article Description

Candida species and coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are common etiologies of hospital acquired bloodstream infection in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Sepsis with either organism may result in serious infectious sequelae and along with other staphylococci are the most common causes of abscess formation in preterm infants. This increased incidence of abscess formation may be in part due to adherence factors of both pathogens.
