Management of mould pneumonia in resource-limited settings in Asia: A Delphi-based consensus statement by the Asia Fungal Working Group.

ABSTRACT: Mould pneumonia can be life-threatening, and its incidence is increasing in Asia. Due to significant variability in diagnostic setups and the availability of antifungal agents, especially in resource-limited settings, the current treatment practices and recommendations for local clinicians are poorly described. This study aimed to develop a consensus statement on the clinical management of mould pneumonia in Asia, particularly within resource-limited settings. Clinicians and infectious disease experts from the Asia Fungal Working Group answered questions about the regional epidemiology as well as diagnostic and resource-limited treatment approaches of mould pneumonia. Guided by a literature review, 22 initial questions were generated and voted upon anonymously using a Delphi-based methodol
