Prevalence of diagnostically-discrepant Clostridioides difficile clinical specimens: insights from longitudinal surveillance

Prevalence of diagnostically-discrepant Clostridioides difficile clinical specimens: insights from longitudinal surveillance

BackgroundClostridioides difficile Infection (CDI) is a healthcare-associated diarrheal disease prevalent worldwide. A common diagnostic algorithm relies on a two-step protocol that employs stool enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) to detect the pathogen, and its toxins, respectively. Active CDI is deemed le...
