Core Tip	This study underscores the significant burden of candidemia in Bahrain, highlighting demographic trends, species distribution, antifungal susceptibility patterns, and critical risk factors over three years. The emergence of multidrug-resistant Candida species, particularly Candida auris, poses challenges to clinical management. High mortality rates underscore the critical need for early detection, prompt initiation of appropriate antifungal therapy guided by susceptibility testing, and rigorous infection control measures. Healthcare providers should prioritize antimicrobial stewardship, minimize invasive procedures when possible, and enhance surveillance efforts to mitigate the rising threat of antifungal resistance and improve patient outcomes in candidemia management.
