Molecular Analysis of Clostridium difficile Strains Isolated from 18 Cases of Recurrent Clostridium difficile-Associated Diarrhea

Recurrence of Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) occurs in 15 to 20% of patients after discontinuation of treatment. Arbitrarily primed PCR was used to investigate the epidemiology of recurrent CDAD in 18 patients. Reinfection with a new strain occurred in 6 of 18 patients (33.3%), whi...
