During 2011-2015, the adjusted long-term-care facility onset Clostridium difficile infection incidence rate in persons aged ≥65 years decreased annually by 17.45% (95% confidence interval, 14.53%-20.43%) across 10 US sites. A concomitant decline in inpatient fluoroquinolone use and the C difficile epidemic strain NAP1/027 among persons aged ≥65 years may have contributed to the decrease in long-term-care facility-onset C difficile infection incidence rate.
在 2011 年至 2015 年期间,美国 10 个地点≥65 岁人群的长期护理机构中,调整后的艰难梭菌感染发生率每年下降 17.45%(95%置信区间,14.53%-20.43%)。≥65 岁人群中住院氟喹诺酮类药物使用和艰难梭菌流行株 NAP1/027 的同时减少可能导致长期护理机构中艰难梭菌感染发生率的下降。
