Personalized approach in the prediction, diagnosis and treatment of superficial and invasive FI in HRP;

Biosafety levels (BSLs)in medical mycology laboratory;

Phases and laboratory workflow in medical mycology laboratory (I, II and III):
I Preanalytic

the personalized approach in HRP;

proper sampling and processing of clinical samples: superficial FI or invasive FI;

II Analytic

Isolation of yeasts and their macroscopic identification.

Isolation of mold (dermatophyte and non-dermatophyte)-macroscopicidentification.

Biochemical, immunological and molecular identification of yeasts and molds

Immunology-serology tests in the diagnosis of invasive FI

Molecular tests (PCR) in the diagnosis of superfitial FI

Antufngal susceptibility testing (AFST)

III Postanalytic

Properly nterpretation of mycology test results ;

Theapplication of“diagnostics guided therapies“

The close collaboration between epidemiologists, clinicians and microbiologists-mycologists

Theregistry of HRP with FI (sepsis and deep organs FI)
