Abstract

New data from the Danish National Fungaemia Surveillance 2012-15 is reported and epidemiological trends are investigated in a 12-year perspective (2004-15). During 2012-15, 1900 out of 1939 (98%) fungal bloodstream isolates were included. The average incidence was 8.4/100,000 inhabitants and this appears to be stabilizing after the increase to 10.1/100,000 in 2011. The incidence was higher in males than females (10.0 vs 6.8) and in patients above 50 years, mainly driven by an increasing incidence among 80-89 years old males (65.3/100,000 in 2014-15). The proportion ofCandida albicansdecreased 2004-15 (64.4% to 42.4%) in parallel with a doubling ofCandida glabrata(16.5% to 34.6%, p
