Infections in the immunocompromised patient.

R J Howard1.   

Abstract

Specific microorganisms have certain types of host defenses directed at them. Inhibition of different host defenses, therefore, leads to an increased risk of the host for infection with different organisms. This article discusses the types of infections present in immunocompromised patients as well as a general approach to diagnosis and treatment.
