Implement strict protective measures: enforce rigorous hand hygiene for all, ensure a private room, and restrict visitors who are ill. Eliminate potential sources of pathogens by prohibiting fresh flowers, standing water, and raw fruits or vegetables.
Do not rely on the presence of pus, redness, or significant swelling to diagnose infection in a neutropenic patient. A single temperature spike of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher is a medical emergency requiring immediate blood cultures and broad-spectrum antibiotics.
