The Epidemiology of Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis at a Large Teaching Hospital

Abstract

The SOT IPA rate decreased after intervals 1 and 2, although the hospitalwide IPA rate remained stable during the study period. Post-earthquake hospital demolition and construction occurring after interval 2 was not associated with an increase in the rate of IPA at our institution.
