In this Nurse Talks, we address the significant impact of Clostridium difficile (C. diff) on healthcare environments. C. diff is a prominent example of a hospital-acquired infection that can be contained with effective mitigation strategies. Our session aims to educate attendees on the etiopathogenesis of C. diff, including the hypervirulent B1/NAP1/027 strain. Participants will gain insights into the unique challenges posed by C. diff in healthcare settings and engage in discussions about the burden of this infection in the United States.
