Official Title: International Pediatric Fungal Network: Multi-Center Studies to Improve Diagnosis and Treatment of Pediatric Candidiasis

Brief Summary: The overarching objective is to ultimately develop new evidence-based treatment guidelines for invasive fungal infections in children. To accomplish that, this protocol will focus on two specific aims: 1) Compare the effectiveness of echinocandin versus amphotericin B or triazole antifungal therapy for pediatric invasive candidiasis; 2) Characterize the incidence of pediatric invasive candidiasis.
