Neonatal candida septicaemia: diagnosis on buffy smear

H E Cattermole et al. Arch Dis Child. 1987 Mar.

Abstract

We report a case of neonatal candida septicaemia diagnosed by examination of a buffy smear. This would seem to be a fairly simple test for a disease where a good prognosis is dependent on rapid diagnosis and isolation using standard culture techniques is notoriously unforthcoming.
