The immunocompromised host represents a vulnerable population with impaired immune defenses, predisposing them to heightened susceptibility to infections and infectious complications. Individuals with compromised immune systems may include those with primary immunodeficiency disorders, secondary immunodeficiencies due to underlying medical conditions or treatments, and recipients of immunosuppressive therapies following organ or bone marrow transplantation. In the immunocompromised host, the body's ability to mount an effective immune response against pathogens is compromised, leading to increased susceptibility to opportunistic infections and a higher risk of morbidity and mortality. Consequently, managing infections in immunocompromised individuals presents unique challenges for healthcare providers, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach that integrates rigorous infection prevention strategies, vigilant surveillance for infectious complications, and tailored therapeutic interventions to optimize patient outcomes and minimize the risk of infectious complications.
