Injury, 06/22/09
Gulihar A et al. - This 38% excess mortality indicated that C. difficile increased mortality and did not simply colonise the sickest patients. Changing prophylaxis to Co-amoxiclav was the most effective measure. This reduced the incidence of C. difficile by 80% and thus reduced mortality by prevention rather than cure.
