Détection de Clostridioïde difficile en 40 minutes*
Le besoin
The alarming rise in the incidence of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) highlights the need for rapid and accurate diagnostic solutions:
- Sensitivity of current available rapid diagnostic tests are unacceptably low1
- Additional length of stay increase caused by C. difficile infection is 5,6 days1
- Incremental costs due to C. difficile infection can be as high as $7 1791 per patient
- Testing of all suspected CDI cases directly with PCR is cost effective2
