Abstract
Our study suggests that use of bronchoalveolar lavage culture and a galactomannan-directed pre-emptive approach significantly decreased the risk of invasive aspergillosis, allowing a 50% reduction in anti-fungal exposure compared with a universal prophylaxis approach, without affecting mortality at 1 year.
