Widespread use of antibiotics for hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) opens up the possibility of Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) and an increased risk of mortality. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for acquiring CDI in patients with HS. We suggest that providers should take risk factors including increased antibiotic class, hospitalizations, and advanced patient age into consideration when prescribing antibiotics for HS.
广泛使用抗生素治疗化脓性汗腺炎(HS)可能会导致艰难梭菌感染(CDI),并增加死亡率。本研究旨在确定 HS 患者发生 CDI 的危险因素。我们建议医生在为 HS 患者开抗生素时,应考虑增加抗生素种类、住院和患者年龄等危险因素。
