Molecular Epidemiology of Clostridium difficile over the Course of 10 Years in a Tertiary Care Hospital
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 10/16/09
Belmares J et al. – Years with a high incidence of CDI were associated with large clusters of specific REA types that changed yearly. The molecular epidemiology of CDI in this hospital was characterized by a wide diversity of C. difficile types and an ever-changing dominance of specific C. difficile types over time. The current epidemic BI group was found sporadically on 6 occasions. A changing CDI molecular epidemiology should be expected in the future.
