English term
reverse isolation
Reverse isolation was eliminated as an isolation category by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in the mid 1980’s.

Reverse Isolation was eliminated as it was not found to improve outcomes for neutropenic patients, and isolation is a negative experience for the patient. (Nurse Code)
