What is reverse isolation?

Protecting a patient with low immunity
Infection control for healthcare workers
Isolation of contagious patients
Clothing removal to prevent spread of infection

The correct answer is: Protecting a patient with low immunity

Reverse isolation is a technique used to protect patients who have weakened immune systems, such as those undergoing chemotherapy, organ transplants, or suffering from certain infections. The primary goal of reverse isolation is to minimize the risk of exposure to infectious agents from the environment, including healthcare workers and visitors. This method involves creating a sterile environment that limits the potential for pathogens to enter the patient's space. The other options relate to different types of isolation. Infection control for healthcare workers focuses on preventing them from spreading infections, isolation of contagious patients pertains to keeping patients with known infections away from others to prevent transmission, and clothing removal to prevent the spread of infection usually pertains to limiting contaminants in various medical settings, but does not specifically address the needs of immunocompromised patients.
