Global Practice Variation in the Management of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> Infections: An International Cross-Sectional Survey of Clinicians
Substantial global variability exists with respect to CDI diagnosis, treatment, and secondary prophylaxis, likely due to divergent guidelines and a paucity of robust evidence. These findings highlight critical knowledge gaps and areas of clinical equipoise and underscore the need for further randomized controlled trials to establish harmonized international best practices for CDI.
