对院内发病的艰难梭菌高危患者进行预防性预防
针对院内发病的艰难梭菌高危患者的先发制人的预防组合
Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) is the most common healthcare-associated pathogen, causing >500,000 infections and >29,000 deaths per year in the US. Traditional approaches to reduce hospital-onset CDI focus on identifying, isolating, and treating symptomatic patients to prevent transmission to other patients. Recent genomic epidemiology studies, however, suggest that most hospital-onset CDI cases are attributable to asymptomatic carriers who either progress from colonization to active infection themselves or transmit C. difficile to other patients while asymptomatic. This trial will evaluate an intervention to pre-emptively identify asymptomatic C. difficile carriers and then implement a patient-tailored prevention package to protect the carrier from progression to active infection and to prevent transmission from the carrier to other patients.

有源比较器:Patients colonized with toxigenic C. difficile who receive the prevention bundle
Patients colonized with toxigenic C. difficile, identified by testing routinely collected swabs for vancomycin-resistant enterococcus screening, who receive a preemptive prevention bundle for C. difficile including enhanced room cleaning, C. difficile precautions, pharmacist review and optimization of antibiotics and antacids, and consideration of vancomycin prophylaxis. |
Patients colonized with toxigenic C. difficile, identified by testing routinely collected swabs for vancomycin-resistant enterococcus screening, will receive a preemptive prevention bundle for C. difficile. The prevention bundle will include enhanced room cleaning, C. difficile precautions (staff entering room must wear gown and gloves and wash hands with soap and water upon exiting the room), pharmacist review and optimization of antibiotics and antacids, and consideration of vancomycin prophylaxis. |
