Clostridioides difficile infection across the lifespan: Estimation using life tables
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 January 2024
Abstract
Using a life tables approach with 2011–2017 claims data, we calculated lifetime risks of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) beginning at age 18 years. The lifetime CDI risk rates were 32% in female patients insured by Medicaid, 10% in commercially insured male patients, and almost 40% in females with end-stage renal disease.
