Abstract

The present article is an update of the literature on bacteraemia in onco-hematologic patients. A multidisciplinary group of Spanish physicians with an interest in this field selected the most important papers published recently. Papers from the fields of basic science, epidemiology, causative microorganisms and clinical syndromes are discussed. Important aspects of these studies include the assessment of different strategies in the management of fever in neutropenic patients and the validation of specific scores. Moreover, early identification of patients at risk of bacterial and of multi-drug resistant infections is a topic of increasing interest.

Resumen

El trabajo que se presenta es una revisión de la bibliografía reciente más relevante publicada en relación con la bacteriemia en pacientes oncohematológicos. Un grupo multidisciplinar compuesto por diferentes especialistas españoles con interés en este campo revisa los artículos más notables. Los trabajos pertenecen a áreas de investigación básica, epidemiología, agentes causales y síndromes clínicos. Se analizan diferentes aspectos, incluyendo estrategias del manejo de la fiebre en el paciente neutropénico y la validación de scores específicos. La identificación precoz de factores de riesgo de infección bacteriana y de infección por microorganismos multirresistentes es objetivo de especial interés.
