Risk factors for the development of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> infection in patients colonized with toxigenic <i>Clostridioides difficile</i>
Progression to HO-CDI among colonized patients was not uncommon. This study highlights key risk factors associated with progression, underscoring the importance of enhanced monitoring and prevention efforts tailored to high-risk populations to mitigate HO-CDI.
