Overview
Bloodstream infections caused by endogenous flora and reactivation of latent infections account for a majority of initial febrile episode in neutropenic patients with cancer.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. Febrile neutropenia is a life threatening condition and must be treated as such irrespective of the underlying cause.
Common Causes
- Acinetobacter spp
- Citrobacter spp
- Coagulase-negative staphylococci
- Enterobacter spp
- Enterococcus spp, including vancomycin-resistant strains
- Escherichia coli
- Klebsiella spp
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-resistant strains
- Stenotrophomonas maltophilia
- Streptococcus pneumoniae
- Streptococcus pyogenes
- Viridans group streptococci
