Community-associated Clostridium difficile infection (CA-CDI) represents 32% of all CDI cases based on U.S. population-based data. The current epidemic strain, NAP1, is the most prevalent strain causing these infections. Although complications, recurrence and death are uncommon, one-fourth of the CA-CDI patients are hospitalized within 7 days after the diagnosis.
