What health care providers need to know about the 2 strains of C. difficile, including types of patients impacted and typical outcomes.

A discussion regarding the increasing frequency of C. difficile recurrence and its effects on patients and the health care system.

Patients with 3 or more C diff recurrences also had the highest health care resources utilization and total, all-cause, direct medical costs.

Rates of serious clinical complications of Clostridioides difficile infection rose as the number of recurrent infections increased, underscoring the importance of advancing new treatments to prevent recurrence of the disease, a recent study in SAGE Open Medicine found.

Clostridioides difficile is an anaerobic pathogen that causes significant morbidity and mortality. Understanding the mechanisms of colonization resistance against C. difficile is important for elucidating the mechanisms by which C. difficile is able to colonize the gut after ant …

Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is a major cause of infectious diarrhea among allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients. The relationship between CDI and acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) has been a topic of interest, as these 2 conditions may influence …

The majority of C. difficile isolated in Australia did not show reduced susceptibility to antimicrobials recommended for treatment of CDI (vancomycin, metronidazole and fidaxomicin). Resistance to carbapenems and fluoroquinolones was low and MDR was uncommon; however, clindamycin resistance was freq …
