Abstract

Gram-positive bacteria in recent decade became relatively more common than Gram-negative bacteria in most centers. Awareness about common pathogens in each center and identification of Empirical antibiotic therapy seems essential. In this survey 47 cases of FEVER and NEUTROPENIA was studied in 41 patients. In 10 cases (21.4%) bacteremia, in 11 cases (23.4%) documented infection without bacteremia, in 13 cases (27.6%) clinically documented infection and in 13 case (27.6%) unexplained FEVER were found. The most common isolated bactereia were Escherichia coli in 10 cases (3 cases bacteremia), Pseudomonas aeruginosa in 5 cases (2 cases bacteremia) and staphylococcus aureus in 5 cases (1 case bacteremia) overall, 13 cases (62%) Gram-positive and 9 cases (38%) Gram- negative bacteria were isolated. The most common sites of bacterial isolation were blood stream (29.4%) and urinary tract (20.5%), but clinically lungs and esophagus were the most involved areas. Using reliable cultures of blood, urine and other suspicious sites to infection, empirical use of anti-pseudomonas antibiotics, use of vancomycin only in limited defined conditions, changing of antibiotics according to culture results and specific attention to blood stream, urine, ear, sinuses and lungs as important sites of infection in febrile neutropenic patients are recommended.
