Fig. 1.Evolution of C. difficile infection (CDI) over time, from control period (left) to COVID-19 period (right). The bar chart shows the total CDI case count, grouped by epidemiological definition. The solid line represents total hospital stays during each period (in days), which were used to calculate the incidence density of nosocomial CDI cases (dashed line). Note. HO-HCFA CDI, hospital-onset healthcare facility-associated C. difficile infection; CO-HCFA CDI, community-onset healthcare facility-associated C. difficile infection; ID CDI, indeterminate-onset C. difficile infection; CA CDI, community-acquired C. difficile infection; rCDI, recurrent C. difficile infection; HCFA CDI (ID), incidence density of healthcare facility-associated C. difficile infection.
