Afternoon Brains Trust,
Just a quick survey of what organisations do (both public and private) for neutropenic patients. Do you use protective isolation/reverse barrier nurse, the IPC hand book, page 97, 9.1.1 neutropenia states ‘should be considered’.
If so what PPE do you recommend used etc.Would be very interested to hear your views.
Many thanks in advance

Afternoon Jayne.
I am an RN at Lismore base acting for infection and control at the present.
We generally isolate into single room, not always, unless febrile, then it is a medical emergency.
We do not reverse barrier nurse.
Patient can wear a mask, or staff if there is any suspicion of respiratory infection.
If we expect this to continue, due to chemo medication ect, then it is usually just a single room.
Thanks
