متن کاملEmpirical versus preemptive antifungal therapy for high-risk, febrile, neutropenic patients: a randomized, controlled trial.
BACKGROUND Empirical antifungal therapy is the standard of care for neutropenic patients with hematological malignancies who remain febrile despite broad-spectrum antibacterial treatment. Recent diagnostic improvements may ensure the early diagnosis of potentially invasive fungal disease. Reserving antifungals for this stage may achieve similar survival rates and reduce treatment toxicity and c...
