An Analysis of Clostridium difficile Environmental Contamination During and After Treatment for C difficile Infection
BACKGROUND: Lower Clostridium difficile spore counts in feces from C difficile infection (CDI) patients treated with fidaxomicin versus vancomycin have been observed. We aimed to determine whether environmental contamination is lower in patients treated with fidaxomicin compared with those treated w...
