Dear colleagues,
I am interested in learning more about your management of patients with laboratory-confirmed C. difficile.
Do you isolate patients with non-toxigenic C. difficile in contact precautions? i.e. these patients have a positive culture but negative toxin.
Also, do you routinely cohort patients with C. difficile infection?
Happy to receive direct replies to D.Karanfilovska@alfred.org.au.
With thanks and warm regards,
DanielaDaniela Karanfilovska
