免疫功能受損的病人是感染的高風險群。WBC 1,500/mm³ 屬於嚴重的白血球減少(Leukopenia/Neutropenia),這意味著病人的免疫防禦系統幾近癱瘓,任何輕微感染都可能迅速進展為敗血症。相較於術後病人或慢性病患,此病人的感染風險最迫切,需由護理師優先評估,並採取嚴格的保護性隔離措施。
Immunocompromised patients are at high risk for infection. A WBC of 1,500/mm³ represents severe leukopenia/neutropenia, meaning that the patient's immune defenses are nearly paralyzed, and any minor infection can rapidly progress to sepsis. Compared with a postoperative patient or a patient with a chronic disease, this patient has the most urgent infection risk and should be assessed first by the nurse, with strict protective isolation measures implemented.
