The collection does not involve statistical methods. Making statistical generalizations beyond the particular respondents is not the purpose of the collection.
The collection is a convenience sample of patients who test positive for triazole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus. Respondents are public health officials/clinicians who will fill out a case report form regarding patients who test positive for triazole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus. Patients might come from any U.S. healthcare facility.
The collection is a convenience sample of patients who test positive for triazole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus. For patients involving triazole-resistant isolates, CDC would use a standardized case report form (CRF) to characterize demographics (e.g., race/ethnicity, country of residence) underlying medical conditions, treatments, and outcomes (e.g., vital status at 30 days for initial positive specimen). The CRF would be filled out voluntarily by state and local health departments and contains an optional supplement at the end involving a brief interview (including data on occupational and environmental exposures) of a patient or their representative.
