Prevalence and incidence statistics for Invasive candidiasis:

See also prevalence and incidence page for Invasive candidiasis

Incidence (annual) of Invasive candidiasis: 8 per 100,000 for candidemia (DBMD)

Incidence Rate: approx 1 in 12,500 or 0.01% or 21,760 people in USA [about data]

Incidence extrapolations for USA for Invasive candidiasis: 21,760 per year, 1,813 per month, 418 per week, 59 per day, 2 per hour, 0 per minute, 0 per second. Note: this extrapolation calculation uses the incidence statistic: 8 per 100,000 for candidemia (DBMD)

Prevalance of Invasive candidiasis: One form of invasive candidiasis, candidemia, is the fourth most common bloodstream infection among hospitalized patients in the United States.. A survey conducted at CDC found that candidemia occurs in 8 of every 100,000 persons per year. (Source: excerpt from Invasive Candidiasis: DBMD)

About statistics:

This page presents a variety of statistics about Invasive candidiasis. The term 'prevalence' of Invasive candidiasis usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Invasive candidiasis at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Invasive candidiasis refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Invasive candidiasis diagnosed each year. Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short-lived disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence.
