 Latest Results Survey of Infection Control Precautions for Patients with Severe Combined Immune DeficiencyAbstract Severe combined immune deficiency (SCID) is caused by an array of genetic disorders resulting in a diminished adaptive immune system due to impaired T lymphocytes. In these patients, active infection at the time of hematopoietic transplantation has been shown to increase morbidity and mortality. To prevent transmission of infections in SCID patients, standardized infection control precautions...
