750. Retrospective Evaluation of the Three-Step EIA/PCR Algorithm as a Cost-Effective Method for Detection and Treatment of Clostridium Difficile Infection
BACKGROUND: Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is the primary cause of infectious diarrhea in the United States. With an estimated 453,000-500,000 burden cases that are associated with 15,000-30,000 deaths annually in the United States. Because of its prevalence, there is a projected 3.2-4.8 bill...
