Clostridium Difficile‚ C. difficile or more commonly called C. diff. belongs to the “domain bacteria which makes it a prokaryotic‚ its Phylum is Firmicutes‚ its class is Clostridia‚ its order is clostridiales‚ its family is Peptostreptococcaceae” (Brymer). “Clostridium difficile is a spore-forming‚ Gram-positive anaerobic bacillus that produces two exotoxins: toxin A and toxin B. It is a common cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD). It accounts for 15-25% of all episodes of AAD.” [1] The

settings. The spore can survive in the environment for extended periods of time. Being exposed to C. diff and becoming infected with it is the most common cause of diarrhea in hospitalized patients making it a nosocomial infection. A nosocomial infection is a hospital/institution acquired infection. In recent years‚ nosocomial infection rates have been reduced and account for less than half of all C. diff infections. It is spread from the infected patient as the spores are released through their
