C. Difficile Toxin Levels in Stool From Healthy Individuals Following Standard of Care Antibiotic Treatment for CDI.
A Prospective, Observational Study to Evaluate C. Difficile Toxin Levels in Stool in Healthy Individuals Following Standard of Care Antibiotic Treatment for CDI.
About This Trial
Hospitals and clinics interested in participating in this multi-site study, please contact the people mentioned under "Contacts and Locations". The goal of this study is to map the risk of having a C. Difficile infection recurrence (rCDI) after being treated with standard-of-care antibiotics for a C. Difficile infection. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What is the recurrence rate of CDI in the 8 weeks following antibiotic treatment for a first recurrence of CDI? * Does toxin levels of Toxin A and/or B from C. Diff. at baseline predict CDI recurrence risk? Participants will: * Undergo standard of care Antibiotic treatment for first recurrence of CDI * Visit their clinic at 4 different visits over a time period of approximately 9 weeks. (Visits can also be performed remote/via phone call.)
