Description:
The epidemiology and incidence of hospital- and
community-acquired Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) has changed over the
past decade resulting in increased cases of initial and recurrent infection. Up
to 25% of patients with an initial episode of CDI experience disease recurrence.
Recurrent CDI is particularly challenging to manage. |
