Untersuchungen zufolge werden Pilzinfektionen t\u00f6dlicher, wenn COVID-19 im Spiel ist.<\/p>\n

Eine aktuelle Studie des Zentren f\u00fcr Krankheitskontrolle und Pr\u00e4vention<\/a> (CDC) hat alarmierende Sterblichkeitsraten bei Patienten aufgedeckt, die wegen COVID-assoziierter Pilzinfektionen ins Krankenhaus eingeliefert wurden. Die Daten zeigten eine erhebliche Diskrepanz im Vergleich zu Pilzinfektionen, die w\u00e4hrend der Pandemiezeit nichts mit dem Virus zu tun hatten.<\/p>\n

Die von Dr. Jeremy Gold und seinem Team am CDC in Atlanta durchgef\u00fchrte Studie beleuchtet die Schwere des Problems.<\/p>\n

Zwischen 2020 und 2021 lag die Sterblichkeitsrate f\u00fcr COVID-assoziierte Pilzinfektionen im Krankenhaus bei unglaublichen 48,51 TP3T. Im Gegensatz dazu lag die Sterblichkeitsrate bei nicht-COVID-assoziierten Pilzinfektionen bei 12,3%.<\/p>\n

Die Forscher hoben spezifische Pilzinfektionen im Zusammenhang mit COVID-19 hervor, die die h\u00f6chsten Sterblichkeitsraten aufwiesen, darunter Aspergillose (57,61 TP3T), invasive Candidiasis (55,41 TP3T), Mukormykose (44,71 TP3T) und nicht n\u00e4her bezeichnete Mykosen (59,01 TP3T).<\/p>\n

Diese Ergebnisse stimmten mit zuvor gemeldeten Daten \u00fcberein, die ebenfalls auf h\u00f6here COVID-assoziierte Todesf\u00e4lle bei Candida und Aspergillus hindeuteten MedPage heute<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dr. Gold und seine Kollegen betonten, wie wichtig es sei, bei Hochrisikopatienten, insbesondere bei Patienten mit COVID-19, ein hohes Ma\u00df an klinischem Verdacht auf Pilzinfektionen aufrechtzuerhalten. Die Studie unterstrich die Notwendigkeit einer verst\u00e4rkten \u00dcberwachung von Pilzkrankheiten, um neue Trends zu erkennen und geeignete Interventionen zu steuern.<\/p>\n

Die Studie analysierte insgesamt 59.212 Krankenhauseinweisungen aufgrund von Pilzinfektionen im Zeitraum 2019 bis 2021. Die Raten pro 10.000 Krankenhauseinweisungen zeigten einen Anstieg von 22,3 im Jahr 2019 auf 25,0 im Jahr 2020 und weiter auf 26,8 im Jahr 2021. Die durchschnittliche j\u00e4hrliche prozentuale Ver\u00e4nderung der Raten wurde zu berechnet 8,5%.<\/p>\n

Von 2020 bis 2021 standen 13,41 TP3T der 39.423 Krankenhausaufenthalte aufgrund von Pilzinfektionen im Zusammenhang mit COVID. Die Raten der COVID-bedingten Pilz-Krankenhauseinweisungen pro 10.000 COVID-Krankenhauseinweisungen stiegen um 24,91 TP3T.<\/p>\n

Die Krankenhausaufenthalte f\u00fchrten zu l\u00e4ngeren Aufenthalten mit einer durchschnittlichen Dauer von 21 Tagen im Vergleich zu 9 Tagen bei nicht-COVID-assoziierten Pilzinfektionen. Es war auch wahrscheinlicher, dass sie eine Intensivpflege in Anspruch nahmen, und bei Patienten mit COVID-assoziierten Pilzinfektionen war die Wahrscheinlichkeit h\u00f6her, dass sie eine invasive mechanische Beatmung ben\u00f6tigten.<\/p>\n

Dar\u00fcber hinaus ergab die Studie demografische Unterschiede, wobei COVID-assoziierte Pilzinfektionen bei M\u00e4nnern und hispanischen\/lateinamerikanischen Personen h\u00e4ufiger auftraten. Auch in westlichen Bundesstaaten traten die Infektionen h\u00e4ufiger auf.<\/p>\n

Die Forscher stellten fest, dass rassische oder ethnische Unterschiede mit seit langem bestehenden Ungleichheiten bei den Determinanten der sozialen Gesundheit, eingeschr\u00e4nktem Zugang zu medizinischer Versorgung, beruflicher Exposition und einer h\u00f6heren Pr\u00e4valenz von Grunderkrankungen wie Diabetes verbunden sein k\u00f6nnten, die das Risiko f\u00fcr Pilzinfektionen und COVID-19 erh\u00f6hen Infektionen bei bestimmten Minderheitengruppen.<\/p>\n

Die Studienautoren erkannten auch die m\u00f6gliche Rolle von Immunsystemtherapien bei den beobachteten Trends an. Eine COVID-19-Infektion wurde als wesentlicher Risikofaktor f\u00fcr bestimmte Pilzinfektionen identifiziert, insbesondere f\u00fcr solche, die durch invasive Schimmelpilze verursacht werden. Dieser Zusammenhang war wahrscheinlich auf eine COVID-19-bedingte Fehlregulation des Immunsystems und den Einsatz immunsuppressiver Therapien wie Kortikosteroide oder anderer immunmodulatorischer Medikamente zur\u00fcckzuf\u00fchren.<\/p>\n

Die Forscher nutzten die Premier Healthcare Database, Special COVID-19 Release, eine umfassende krankenhausbasierte Datenbank f\u00fcr alle Kostentr\u00e4ger, die von der CDC f\u00fcr COVID-Reaktionsaktivit\u00e4ten eingesetzt wird. Zwischen Januar 2019 und Dezember 2021 wurden Krankenhausaufenthalte im Zusammenhang mit Pilzinfektionen und COVID festgestellt. Das Durchschnittsalter der Patienten, die wegen COVID-assoziierter Pilzinfektionen ins Krankenhaus eingeliefert wurden, betrug 63 Jahre, verglichen mit 61 Jahren bei Patienten mit nicht COVID-assoziierten Pilzinfektionen.<\/p>\n

Die Autoren r\u00e4umten einige Einschr\u00e4nkungen ein, darunter m\u00f6gliche Unterberichterstattung, Fehlklassifizierung und unspezifische Kodierung pathogener Pilze aufgrund von Pilzdiagnosecodes. Dar\u00fcber hinaus betonten sie den Mangel an umfassenden Daten zu Pilzinfektionen w\u00e4hrend der Pandemie in den Vereinigten Staaten, da viele Pilzkrankheiten derzeit nicht meldepflichtig seien.<\/p>\n
