Official title
Can Use of Bismuth Subsalicylate in Clostridium Difficile Patients Decrease the Length of Stay and Time to Resolution of Symptoms
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Clostridium difficle infection is the leading cause of hospital acquired infection and infectious diarrhea in hospitalized patients. Eradication treatment for this infection is the challenging tasks for clinicians due to treatment resistance developed from new hypervirulent strains. The recurrence rate of this infection is around 20% and there is high likelihood(60-70%) of another episode after index recurrence. Given constant challenge new treatment options are under study. Aim of the study is to evaluate if use of bismuth subsalicylate (BSS) can decrease the length of stay in patients admitted with Clostridium difficile infection. Secondarily investigators will also see if there is any impact of BSS in decrease the recurrence.
