〔Abstract〕 In order to analyze the correlation between age factors and the epidemiology, this study reviewed 115 fungemia cases in our hospital during the period 2012-2019. There were 30 strains of Candida albicans,29 stains of Candida tropicalis, 27 strains of Candia para psilosis, 16 strains of Candida glabrata, 4 strains of Candida krusei and 9 strains of others. The study found that fungemia frequently happened in male and young patient. The study also found that the percentage of patient in ICU and department of medicine, were positively correlated with age, while surgery and hematology were negatively correlated with age. For gender, ICU, hematology, glucocorticoids, respiratory distress, diabetes and utilization of drugs, the differences among age groups were statistically significant. For ICU, shock and internal medicine, the differences between prognosis groups were statistically significant. Therefore, clinical analysis should be based on different age and different factors to assist diagnosis and improve prognosis.
