Overview

A complete blood count (CBC) is performed in patients with neutropenia or who are immunosuppressed. A CD4 count and HIV test are performed in patients with risk factors for HIV. A collagen workup (eg, antinuclear antibody [ANA], anti-dsDNA) may be performed based on the underlying disease.
