Severely immunocompromised (A) conditions include leukemia/lymphoma/HSCT/BMT, chemotherapy, other immune disorders, solid organ transplant or long-term steroid use. Critically ill (B) conditions include trauma, septicemia, bacteremia, necrotizing fasciitis, intracranial hemorrhage and mechanical ventilation for 96+ hours. Mildly/moderately immunocompromised (C) conditions include ESRD/hemodialysis, lupus, malignant solid tumors, diabetic ketoacidosis, blood disorders, and diabetes. Major surgery or pneumonia (D) includes selected thoracic, cardiac, vascular, abdominal, peripheral, urology, and neurology surgeries, other major procedures, and pneumonia.
