Genomic determination of relative risks for <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> infection from asymptomatic carriage in ICU patients

2020-01-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Clostridioides difficile infections (CDIs) are among the most prevalent hospital-associated infections (HAIs), particularly for intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The risks for developing active CDI from asymptomatic carriage of C. difficile are not well understood. <h4>Methods</h4> We identified asymptomatic C. difficile carriage among 1897 ICU patients, using rectal swabs from an existing IC...
