Successful use of early repeat fecal microbiota transplantation for initial treatment of severe refractory Clostridioides difficile colitis
Successful use of early repeat fecal microbiota transplantation for initial treatment of severe refractory Clostridioides difficile colitis
This case suggests a role for early, repeat FMT during an initial presentation of a severe Clostridioides difficile colitis episode refractory to pharmacologic antimicrobial therapy. It also adds to emerging literature regarding the timing of antibiotic cessation surrounding FMT.

Usefulness of Fecal Calprotectin in the Management of Patients with Toxigenic Clostridioides difficile
Usefulness of Fecal Calprotectin in the Management of Patients with Toxigenic Clostridioides difficile
The availability of highly sensitive molecular tests for the detection of Clostridioides difficile in feces leads to overtreatment of patients who are probably only colonized. In this prospective study, the usefulness of fecal calprotectin (fCP) is evaluated in a cohort of patients with detec …
