Abstract
Neutropenia is a common complication during anti-cancer therapy. Risk factors for febrile neutropenia, its diagnostic criteria, and methods of its prevention and treatment have been well described. In this article, we demonstrated the need to assess cost effectiveness of primary prevention of complications associated with polychemotherapy and treatment of neutropenia, as well as the need to analyze their incidence. Individual risk assessment of febrile neutropenia, implementation of the antimicrobial drug registry, and administration of pegylated granulocyte colony-stimulating factor reduced the incidence of neutropenia, its duration, and the number of antimicrobial drugs used. This, in turn, improved the quality of healthcare and optimized the use of hospital resources.
