摘要
Healthcare-facility-onset C.difficile LabID events are defined as positive stool samples collected >3 days after hospitalization. Using a definition of >72 hours, we found that 84 of 1013 cases (8.3%) identified as C. difficile LabID events were collected between 48 and 72 hours after admission.
