Abstract
With use of the Nationwide Inpatient Sample, we conducted a study to
determine whether rates of Clostridium difficile
infection for delivery-associated hospitalizations are increasing. From 1998 to
2006, the number and incidence of C. difficile
infection among peripartum women increased significantly. These increases were
comparable to those observed in the general hospitalized population.
