Synopsis "Antibiotic Associated Diarrhoea and Colitis: The Role of Clostridium Difficile in Gastrointestinal Disorders (in English)"
Antimicrobial-associated diarrhea is often caused by Clostridium difficile; this disease can best be diagnosed by detection of fecal cytotoxin in a tissue culture assay and, when therapy is indicated, can be effectively treated with orally administered vancomycin. The cause of disease in most cases of antimicrobial-associated diarrhea that do not involve C. difficile is not known; fortunately, this form of diarrhea 1S usually mild. Antimicrobial-associated diarrhea may also rarely involve s. aureus and certain enteric pathogens. 37 QHAPTER 4 Qf. TECTlON. ISOLATION Al: iQ. . . IQENTlFICATlON OF CLOSTRIDIUM PIFFICILE S. P.

P. Borriello and Pauline Honour Introduction In view of the mounting evidence generated world wide in the last few years that firmly implicates . difficile as the aetiological agent in both antibiotic and non-antibiotic associated pseudomembranous colitis (Larson al., 1978, Bartlett al., 1978a, George al., 1978a), and also recent recognition of the fact that there may be a spectrum of gastrointestinal diseases associated with . difficile infections (Borriello and Larson, 1981, Bolton al., 1980, Brettle al., 1982), an increasing number of laboratories are seeking to detect, isolate and identify . difficile from clinical samples.
