TL;DR: Micafungin was as effective as--and caused fewer adverse events than--liposomal amphotericin B as first-line treatment of candidaemia and invasive candidosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute renal failure in patients with sepsis in a surgical ICU: predictive factors, incidence, comorbidity, and outcome.
Eric Hoste,Norbert Lameire,Raymond Vanholder,Dominique Benoit,Johan Decruyenaere,Francis Colardyn +5 more
TL;DR: A simple risk model for ARF, on basis of two readily available parameters on day 1 of sepsis, was developed, hopefully resulting in a lower incidence of ARF and needi for RRT, thereby lowering mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and economic outcomes in critically ill patients with nosocomial catheter-related bloodstream infections.
Stijn Blot,Stijn Blot,Pieter Depuydt,Lieven Annemans,Dominique Benoit,Eric Hoste,Eric Hoste,Jan J. De Waele,Johan Decruyenaere,Dirk Vogelaers,Francis Colardyn,Koenraad Vandewoude,Koenraad Vandewoude +12 more
TL;DR: In ICU patients, CR-BSI does not result in increased mortality, but it is associated with a significant economic burden, emphasizing the importance of continuous efforts in prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Attributable mortality of ventilator-associated pneumonia: a reappraisal using causal analysis.
Maarten Bekaert,Jean-François Timsit,Stijn Vansteelandt,Pieter Depuydt,Aurélien Vesin,Maité Garrouste-Orgeas,Johan Decruyenaere,Christophe Clec’h,Elie Azoulay,Dominique Benoit +9 more
TL;DR: This study is the first that simultaneously accounts for the time of acquiring VAP, informative loss to follow-up after ICU discharge, and the existence of complex feedback relations between VAP and the evolution of disease severity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quality of life after intensive care: a systematic review of the literature.
TL;DR: Quality of life differed on diagnostic category but, overall, critically ill patients had a lower quality of life than an age- and gender-matched population, butquality of life tended to improve over years.
