Abstract
The Clostridioides difficile Infection (CDI) treatment guidelines were published in 2021; however, the incorporation of these recommendations into clinical practice was rather irregular and inconsistent. The differences in the implementation of these new guidelines were due, in part, to the variety in the different professionals who provided patient care, as well as to the issues involved in either their accessibility or availability or both. The main requirements for implementation include appropriate reflection on patient stratification, drug positioning, accessibility to drugs, as well as the organization of structured clinical pathways that can facilitate the functionality and evaluation of the management of CDI.
