Resumen

Comercialmente, existen muchos productos vendidos como probióticos compuestos por Sacharomyces boulardii, siendo los probióticos los fármacos más utilizados en diversas situaciones clínicas. La eficacia probiótica de estos agentes está demostrada en numerosos estudios, así como su seguridad en situaciones de uso normal. Sin embargo, existen algunos reportes de fungemia relacionada con el uso de estos probióticos en hospitales asociados a algunos factores. Por tanto, nuestro objetivo es revisar el conocimiento sobre esta asociación, centrándonos en los factores que la favorecen y los mecanismos de desarrollo. Para el desarrollo de fungemia asociada al uso de probióticos, existe un mayor potencial de desarrollo en pacientes usuarios de catéteres venosos centrales. Si bien este es el principal factor, otros que reducen el estado inmunológico del paciente, así como la reducción de las barreras de defensa intestinales, contribuyen a este proceso, aumentando el riesgo de fungemia. A pesar de los beneficios bien documentados de los probióticos, su uso debe evaluarse cuidadosamente para cada paciente, debido a factores que contribuyen a asociar el uso de medicamentos probióticos con el riesgo de desarrollar infección del torrente sanguíneo por S. boulardii. Por ello, es necesario incluir protocolos que generen alertas sobre este riesgo y establecer medidas preventivas.
