841. Implications of C. difficile Treatment on Environmental Contamination: A Randomized Controlled Trial with Microbiologic Environmental and Molecular Outcomes

摘要

Background Clostridioides difficile is a leading cause of healthcare-associated infection. Despite multimodal prevention efforts, in-hospital transmission continues to occur. In this study, we tested whether the choice of treatment can reduce C. difficile shedding and contamination of the inpatient environment.
