Infections in Cancer Patients
Cancer therapy is a dynamically evolving field. Chemotherapy and biologic agents impact the magnitude and duration of immunosuppression in the already-immunocompromised cancer hosts who are then susceptible to a broad spectrum of infectious complications ranging from mild opportunistic infections to severe, fatal neutropenic sepsis. Numerous bacterial, fungal, and viral organisms have been impl...

To successfully identify, treat, and prevent infections, a comprehensive understanding of risk factors that predispose to infection and of commonly encountered pathogens is necessary. In addition,...
متن کاملStaphylococcal Blood Stream Infections in Cancer Patients
Dear Sir, Cancer patients are at an increased risk of the blood stream infections (BSI) due to their immune‐compromised status, repeated hospitalizations, and various procedures. Staphylococci, particularly coagulase negative Staphylococci (CoNS) are noteworthy pathogens in such cases, and the emergence of multi‐drug resistance in Staphylococci is a cause of concern. This study was prospectivel...
