James T Bernatz1, Nasia Safdar2, Scott Hetzel3, Paul A Anderson1.   

Abstract

Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is associated with increased cost, morbidity, and mortality in postoperative patients. Variable rates of postoperative CDI are reported among 4 surgical specialties during the 30-month study period. Risk factors for CDI include antibiotic use, increased ASA score, and increased admissions in the past year. Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2017;38:1254-1257.
