High-risk patients such as these require a unique set of healthcare solutions that take into consideration everything from the etiology and degree of immune suppression to the individual patient's nutritional status. This comprehensive volume examines a wide range of approaches and challenges to infectious disease diagnostics for immunocompromised patients. 606 $aDiagnostic microbiology$xTechnique 606 $aImmunological deficiency syndromes$xDiagnosis 606 $aOpportunistic infections 615 0$aDiagnostic microbiology$xTechnique. 615 0$aImmunological deficiency syndromes$xDiagnosis. 615 0$aOpportunistic infections. 676 $a616.9/0475 701 $aHayden$b Randall T$01699916 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910830200203321 996 $aDiagnostic microbiology of the immunocompromised host$94082540 997 $aUNINA
