Brief Summary
IBIS is a prospective, observational study, which aims to assess the cost of CDI per day, hospitalization and year including description of incremental costs in hospitalized patients, and recurrent episodes, in German hospitals. Exposure to CDI drugs will not be influenced and remains at the discretion of the treating physician. In addition to treatment, Health-related quality of life (HRQL) will be analyzed using standardized questionnaires.

Eligibility Criteria
Hospitalized patients with a CDI episode in German hospitals
You may qualify if:
- Index episode of CDI based on
- the presence of diarrhea (defined as ≥3 unformed bowel movements/24h) plus
- an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) detecting Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for toxin B test plus
- a positive EIA for toxin A and B
- Written informed consent (IC) has been obtained from the study subject or a legal representative.
You may not qualify if:
- Patient with any social or logistical condition which in the opinion of the investigator may interfere with the conduct of the study, such as incapacity to well understand, not willing to collaborate, or cannot easily be contacted after discharge.
- CDI episode within the previous 84 days.
