Clinical Trial: Study of Factors Influencing the Dynamics of Colonisation and Decolonisation of the Digestive Tract by Clostridioides Difficile in Infants

U.S., April 7 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07512908) titled 'Study of Factors Influencing the Dynamics of Colonisation and Decolonisation of the Digestive Tract by Clostridioides Difficile in Infants' on March 27.

Brief Summary: Clostridioides difficile (formerly C. difficile) is a bacterium found in the form of spores (a resistant form) to which patients may be exposed in a hospital environment. Once ingested, the spore can germinate in the digestive tract in its vegetative form (active form of the bacterium) and then takes on the appearance of a Gram-positive bacillus that colonizes the digestive microbiota. This preliminary stage of digestive colonization by the bacterium is facilitated by...
