Abstract: Candida auris is a newly discovered fungal pathogen in 2009, which is characterized by multidrug resistance, difficulty in identification, and persistence in the hospital environments for several weeks, which can cause invasive infections and outbreaks of nosocomial infection, and difficulties in treatment and control of hospital infections, which has attracted the attention of the public health and medical communities. At present, there is no systematic effective anti-infective treatment and standardized hospital infection prevention and control measures for C. auris infection in healthcare facilities. This article summarizes the research progress in epidemiology, pathogenesis, infection prevention and control measures, and treatments of C.auris in recent years to provide reference for curbing the transmission of C.auris in healthcare facilities and preventing and controlling nosocomial infection outbreaks.
