While it may not be possible to completely eliminate the risk of sepsis, several measures can significantly reduce the likelihood of its occurrence. Good hygiene practices, regular handwashing, and avoiding contact with sick individuals are fundamental precautions. Cancer patients should also stay up-to-date with vaccinations and follow their healthcare provider's recommendations for prophylactic antibiotics and other preventive measures. Monitoring for early signs of infection and seeking prompt medical attention can also help prevent the progression to sepsis.
