Optimizing the interpretation of Clostridioides difficile two-step diagnostic algorithm results through antimicrobial stewardship
Over a 4-year period, the antimicrobial stewardship team reviewed all positive (PCR+/Tox+) and indeterminate (PCR+/Tox−) cases with the most responsible physician for classification of patients as infection or colonization. Among 501 indeterminate samples, 213 (43%) were considered to be clinical in...
