Despite the wide-and not always appropriate-use of broad-spectrum antimicrobials, specific data about bacterial and fungal co-infection in COVID-19 patients are lacking, and confirmed evidence is urgently required to build prospective evidence and to support the development of antimicrobial policy and appropriate stewardship interventions. The present Special Issue aims to focus on the following key points: Importance of superinfections in COVID-19 patients who are typically characterized by immunosuppression related to viral infection, need for prolonged hospitalization, treatment with immunomodulatory therapies (steroids, monoclonal antibodies, etc.); Their impact on the outcome of a cohort of patients who are relatively young, with few comorbidities, but requiring prolonged invasive support; Incidence, characteristics and impact of bacterial infections caused by multidrug-resistant, Gram-negative pathogens in the context of COVID-19 disease; Incidence, characteristics and impact of fungal infections, such as the most known invasive aspergillosis but also candidemia and/or other fungal infections (e.g., mucormycosis); Antimicrobial surveillance, control and management measures as implemented on a local, national and international basis. 606 $aMedicine$2bicssc 610 $aantimicrobial resistance 610 $aantimicrobial stewardship 610 $abacterial infections 610 $aCOVID-19 610 $acritical care medicine 610 $afungal infections 610 $aintensive care medicine 610 $amultidrug-resistant pathogens 610 $aSARS-CoV-2 610 $aSuperinfections 615 7$aMedicine 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910743275903321 996 $aInfection, Super Infection and Antimicrobial Management in ICU$93560555 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04464nam 22006855 450 001 9910882891903321 005 20250926113036.0 010 $a9783031627392 010 $a3031627393 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-62739-2 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC31611720 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL31611720 035 $a(CKB)34168625200041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-62739-2 035 $a(OCoLC)1453237922 035 $a(EXLCZ)9934168625200041 100 $a20240822d2024 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aConflicts and Challenges in the Middle East $eReligious, Political and Economic Perspectives /$fedited by Ho-Don Yan, Oscar Bajo-Rubio, Diana S.
