The importance of infections in IC host:
Increasing numbers of immunocompromized patients.
Seriousness of infections in those patients.
Infections with unusual, nonpathogenic microorganisms.
Atypical presentation of infections by common pathogens

Causes of immune deficiency:
Primary (congenital);
Rare, more common in children e.g chronic granulomatus disease, combined immunedifiency syndrome, specific Ig deficiency, others.
Secondary (acquired); The commonest, there are many causes like;
Extremes of age, pregnancy, infections, malignancy, chemotherapy, steroids, burns, trauma, procedures, connective tissue diseases, chronic diseases like DM,CRF etc.

Fever In Neutropenic PatientFever In Neutropenic Patient
Definition: Fever: Oral temperature of 38c for more than two hours or
single temperature of 38.3c or more.
Neutropenia: A Neutrophil count of <500 cells/mm³ or a count of <1000 cells/mm³ with a predicted decline to 500/mm
Approach to patient: Careful history and examination, investigations (like blood
cultures, urine culture, CXR, others), then start antibiotic therapy to cover the most likely organisms.

Infections in Solid-Organ Infections in Solid-Organ Transplant RecipientsTransplant Recipients
• Factors affecting the incidence of infections:
The type of organ transplanted.
The degree of immunosupression.
The need for additional antirejection therapy.
The occurrence of surgical complications.
Presence of latent infection in the donor or recipient.
