Journal ArticleDOI

Juliette Morgan,Martin I. Meltzer,Brian D. Plikaytis,Andre N. Sofair,Sharon Huie-White,Steven Wilcox,Lee H. Harrison,Eric C. Seaberg,Rana A. Hajjeh,Steven M. Teutsch +9 more
TL;DR: The findings underscore the burden of candidemia, particularly regarding the risk of death, length of hospitalization, and cost associated with treatment (Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2005;26:540-547).
Journal ArticleDOI
Excess costs of hospital care associated with neonatal candidemia.
P. Brian Smith,Juliette Morgan,Daniel K. Benjamin,Scott K. Fridkin,Laurie Thomson Sanza,Lee H. Harrison,Andre N. Sofair,Sharon Huie-White +7 more
TL;DR: In addition to high mortality, candidemia was associated with increased hospital costs and this cost analysis could be helpful in determining the financial benefits of preventing candidemia in high risk neonates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of community-onset candidemia in Connecticut and Maryland.
Andre N. Sofair,G. Marshall Lyon,G. Marshall Lyon,Sharon Huie-White,Errol Reiss,Lee H. Harrison,Laurie Thomson Sanza,Beth A. Arthington-Skaggs,Scott K. Fridkin +8 more
TL;DR: It is reported that community-onset candidemia is common and occurs in patients with extensive contact with the health care system, and was less likely to be associated with concurrent immunosuppressive therapy, recent surgery, or use of a central venous catheter, compared with inpatient disease.
Journal Article
Use of fax-back surveillance to determine epidemiologic and clinical characteristics of patients diagnosed with hepatitis C in Waterbury, Connecticut.
TL;DR: Fax-back surveillance in the case of HCV is feasible and provides much-needed patient-level information and many patients appear to not have adequate follow-up for the management of this infection.
