Reverse Precautions

Infection control procedures (e.g., sterilisation and isolation) used to protect the patient—rather than the care providers or other patients who are immunocompromised either as a congenital condition (e.g., combined variable immunodeficiency syndrome) or an acquired condition (e.g., bone marrow irradiation before bone marrow transplantation). Reverse precautions are required when the neutrophil count falls below 0.5 x 109—US: 500/mm3
