Background:There are inconsistent data on the risk factors forClostridium difficileinfection (CDI) in the literature. Aims:To use twoC. difficileinfection (CDI) case-control study groups to compare risk factors in hospitalized patients with diarrhea across different countries. Methods:A multi-center group of CDI cases/controls were identified by standardized testing from seven countries from the prior EUropean, multi-center, prospective bi-annual point prevalence study ofCLostridium difficileInfection in hospitalized patients with Diarrhea (EUCLID). A second group of CDI cases/controls was identified from a single center in Germany [parallel study site (PSS)]. Data were extracted from the medical notes to assess CDI risk factors. Univariate analyses and multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify and compare risk factors between the two groups. Results:There were 253 and 158 cases and 921 and 584 controls in the PSS and EUCLID groups, respectively. Significant variables from univariate analyses in both groups were age >= 65, number of antibiotics (OR 1.2 for each additional antibiotic) and prior hospital admission (allp< 0.001). Congestive heart failure, diabetes, admission from assisted living or Emergency Department, proton pump inhibitors, and chronic renal disease were significant in PSS (allp< 0.05) but not EUCLID. Dementia and admitted with other bacterial diseases were significant in EUCLID (p< 0.05) but not PSS. Following multivariate analyses, age >= 65, number of antibiotics and prior hospital admission were consistently identified as CDI risk factors in each individual group and combined datasets. Conclusion:Our results show that the same CDI risk factors were identified across datasets. These were age >= 65 years, antibiotic use and prior hospital admission. Importantly, the odds of developing CDI increases with each extra antibiotic prescribed.
