We are grateful to the many contributors to this work. We are particularly grateful to MCHIP and USAID for the financial support which made this work possible. Earlier drafts of this volume were reviewed in whole or in part by many people, and we appreciate all the comments that led to a stronger product than would have been the case otherwise. Those whose comments on earlier drafts were limited to a single chapter are acknowledged in that chapter. Others who reviewed all or large parts of this document whose contributions we deeply appreciate include Jon Rohde, David Sanders, William Brieger, Anne Liu, Muhammad Mahmood Afzal, John Stanback, Mary Lou Fisher, Seyi Soremekun, Vikas Dwivedi, members of the CORE Group staff, attendees at the CORE Group meeting in the fall of 2013, and numerous staff members at the USAID Bureau of Global Health. v Preface and Guide to the Reader Welcome to Developing and Strengthening Community Health Worker Programs at Scale: A Reference Guide and Case Studies for Program Managers and Policymakers (the CHW Reference Guide). This guide is a long and detailed volume that is not intended to be read from cover to cover but rather to be used as a document that can be referred to as specific issues or questions arise. In this sense, you will find some repetition. We have also tried to refer the reader to other chapters where appropriate because many topics and issues are covered in various ways in different chapters. For readers who want a quicker and perhaps easier-to-use reference, we encourage a look at the recently released Decision-Making Tool for CHW Programs (the CHW Decision Tool) developed by the Health Care Improvement Project, Applying Science to Strengthen and Improve Systems Project of the University Research Corporation (URC) , supported by USAID. This tool is designed to support national and local decision-makers through the design, planning, and scale- up of CHW programs. The CHW Reference Guide is a more in-depth review of issues and questions that should be considered when addressing key issues relevant for large-scale CHW programs. Like the CHW Decision Tool, the CHW Reference Guide is designed for new CHW programs that are beginning the planning process as well as for existing programs that are being strengthened or scaled up. Like the CHW Decision Tool, the CHW Reference Guide is meant for in-country use by national- level policymakers and planners as well as program implementers. It has many practical examples from CHW programs around the world. Unlike the CHW Decision Tool, the CHW Reference Guide is meant to be a stand-alone document that is read essentially like a reference book. It provides an in-depth look at specific questions of central relevance to large-scale CHW programs. It also has appendixes with a summary of in-depth interviews with key informants who have had extensive experience in working with large-scale CHW programs; a series of in- depth and detailed case studies of CHW programs from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Brazil, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Iran, Nepal, Pakistan, Rwanda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe; and a list of important resources for CHW program managers and policymakers. • Both CHW resources offer guidance and support on issues related to CHW program governance, planning, financing, health system support, community collaboration, recruitment and selection, tasks and roles of the CHW, training, incentives, logistical support, scaling up, and monitoring and evaluation (M&E). The CHW Reference Guide contains a history of CHW programming around the world. The CHW Decision Tool contains links

  • 'Risk Factors for Candidemia: a Prospective Matched Case-Control
    Poissy et al. Critical Care (2020) 24:109 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13054-020-2766-1 RESEARCH Open Access Risk factors for candidemia: a prospective matched case-control study Julien Poissy1,2,3 , Lauro Damonti3,4, Anne Bignon5, Nina Khanna6, Matthias Von Kietzell7, Katia Boggian7, Dionysios Neofytos8, Fanny Vuotto9, Valérie Coiteux10, Florent Artru11, Stephan Zimmerli4, Jean-Luc Pagani12, Thierry Calandra3, Boualem Sendid2,13, Daniel Poulain2,13, Christian van Delden8, Frédéric Lamoth3,14, Oscar Marchetti3,15, Pierre-Yves Bochud3*, the FUNGINOS and Allfun French Study Groups Abstract Background: Candidemia is an opportunistic infection associated with high morbidity and mortality in patients hospitalized both inside and outside intensive care units (ICUs). Identification of patients at risk is crucial to ensure prompt antifungal therapy. We sought to assess risk factors for candidemia and death, both outside and inside ICUs. Methods: This prospective multicenter matched case-control study involved six teaching hospitals in Switzerland and France. Cases were defined by positive blood cultures for Candida sp. Controls were matched to cases using the following criteria: age, hospitalization ward, hospitalization duration, and, when applicable, type of surgery. One to three controls were enrolled by case. Risk factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate conditional regression models, as a basis for a new scoring system to predict candidemia. Results: One hundred ninety-two candidemic patients and 411 matched controls were included. Forty-four percent of included patients were hospitalized in ICUs, and 56% were hospitalized outside ICUs. Independent risk factors for candidemia in the ICU population included total parenteral nutrition, acute kidney injury, heart disease, prior septic shock, and exposure to aminoglycoside antibiotics.

  • Fungal Sepsis: Optimizing Antifungal Therapy in the Critical Care Setting
    Fungal Sepsis: Optimizing Antifungal Therapy in the Critical Care Setting a b,c, Alexander Lepak, MD , David Andes, MD * KEYWORDS Invasive candidiasis Pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics Therapy Source control Invasive fungal infections (IFI) and fungal sepsis in the intensive care unit (ICU) are increasing and are associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. In this setting, IFI are predominantly caused by Candida species. Currently, candidemia represents the fourth most common health care–associated blood stream infection.1–3 With increasingly immunocompromised patient populations, other fungal species such as Aspergillus species, Pneumocystis jiroveci, Cryptococcus, Zygomycetes, Fusarium species, and Scedosporium species have emerged.4–9 However, this review focuses on invasive candidiasis (IC). Multiple retrospective studies have examined the crude mortality in patients with candidemia and identified rates ranging from 46% to 75%.3 In many instances, this is partly caused by severe underlying comorbidities. Carefully matched, retrospective cohort studies have been undertaken to estimate mortality attributable to candidemia and report rates ranging from 10% to 49%.10–15 Resource use associated with this infection is also significant. Estimates from numerous studies suggest the added hospital cost is as much as $40,000 per case.10–12,16–20 Overall attributable costs are difficult to calculate with precision, but have been estimated to be close to 1 billion dollars in the United States annually.21 a University of Wisconsin, MFCB, Room 5218, 1685 Highland Avenue, Madison, WI 53705-2281, USA b Department of Medicine, University of Wisconsin, MFCB, Room 5211, 1685 Highland Avenue, Madison, WI 53705-2281, USA c Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Wisconsin, MFCB, Room 5211, 1685 Highland Avenue, Madison, WI 53705-2281, USA * Corresponding author.
