Reducing rates of Clostridium difficile infection by switching to a stand-alone NAAT with clear sampling criteria

BACKGROUND: Clostridium difficile infection is an important cause of morbidity and mortality but the optimal method of diagnosis for both patient management and infection prevention remains controversial. METHODS: Our hospital made a decision to switch from the use of toxin immunoassay to a stand-al...
