The incidence of urinary tract infection in the neonatal period is higher in preterm than in term infants.1 These are typically late-onset infections occurring after 72 hours of age.2 Because the signs of urinary tract infection in neonates are nonspecific, a safe and effective way of sampling urine for culture such as suprapubic aspiration is essential. Although previous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of this procedure in term and preterm infants, the preterm infants studied previously were undoubtedly larger than those very low birth weight infants cared for in today's neonatal intensive care units, inasmuch as survival rates for these small infants have increased.1,3

AbstractWe report on the diagnosis and treatment of a Candida nivariensis urinary tract infection in an extremely low-birth-weight neonate. The isolate was identified by MALDI-TOF technology and is the first known report of C. nivariensis in the neonatal or pediatric population. Treatment was initiated with amphotericin B deoxycholate and later completed with intravenous fluconazole following susceptibility results.
