Epidemiology of Clostridium Difficile Infection [PDF]
Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2015 According to L¨bbert et al., the incidence of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) in Germany is 5 to 20 cases per 100 000 persons (1). It can be assumed that this figure is much too low. An ecological study based on routine data identified a total of 9874 cases hospitalized because of CDI, as well as further 26 341 cases with CDI as a concomitant ...

Treatment of Clostridium difficile infection [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 1998 The treatment options for Clostridium difficile infection remain limited, although promising agents are currently being assessed. Metronidazole is the first-line drug of choice for those patients requiring specific anti-C. difficile treatment. Much of the interest in alternative therapies has centred on the difficult management issues posed by patients

A study of Clostridium difficile in biofilm mode of growth using the Sorbarod filter system [PDF]
In all ecosystems, bacteria are likely to grow in biofilms, and the organisms making up the natural flora of the colon are considered to be no exception to this. One of the most important hospital-acquired infections is antibiotic associated diarrhoea,
