One blood culture and one set of T2clinical specimens will be collected at specified intervals to monitor the clearance of Candida infection from the bloodstream.
Each T2 result will be compared to the companion blood culture result. The comparison will determine if the presence of antifungal therapy inhibits blood culture and leads to an incidence of blood culture false negative test results. The T2 result, which is not impacted by the presence of antifungal therapy, can show that the pathogen is still present for some additional period of time.
