Does longer treatment of C. difficile infection lead to fewer recurrences in patients taking concurrent antibiotics? Join us as we interview Irina Rajakumar on her research into the impact of CDI length of treatment on recurrent rates. Hear her discuss the study design and the impact of demographics such as age, clinical services, and concurrent antibiotics, and analyze if an infectious disease consultation influenced the outcome. Tune in to learn more about her work and how it can be applied to practice.

With special guest:

Irina Rajakumar, Infectious Disease and Antimicrobial Stewardship Pharmacist, Alberta Health Services
