Overview
White blood cells are a crucial part of the immune system. They are responsible for defending the body against infections and foreign substances. Having a low white blood cell count can make a person more susceptible to infections as the body's immune system is weakened. The Febrile Neutropenia Profile by PCR is a molecular diagnostic test used to detect infections in patients with febrile neutropenia. Febrile neutropenia refers to a condition where an individual with low neutrophil count (a type of white blood cell) develops a fever, which is a common complication in patients undergoing chemotherapy or with compromised immune systems. The profile typically involves testing EDTA blood samples using PCR technology to detect the presence of specific bacterial and fungal pathogens that commonly cause infections in febrile neutropenic patients. The panel of pathogens included in the test may vary depending on the laboratory and its specific focus or regional considerations.
