A Simulation-Based Assessment of Strategies to Control Clostridium Difficile Transmission and Infection

BACKGROUND: Clostridium difficile is one of the most common and important nosocomial pathogens, causing severe gastrointestinal disease in hospitalized patients. Although "bundled" interventions have been proposed and promoted, optimal control strategies remain unknown. METHODS: We designe...
