Résumé
Literature suggests that cancer patients can become colonized or infected with a variety of opportunistic and health care-associated pathogens, putting them at higher risk for nonventilator health care-associated pneumonia. This section will review the epidemiology of nonventilator health care-associated pneumonia and the importance of prevention strategies in this vulnerable population. Prevention strategies for cancer patients across the continuum of care are highlighted.
