Presentation
We present a case of C. sordellii bacteraemia and septic shock in an immunocompromised patient who was recently diagnosed with pleomorphic gluteal sarcoma. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Microbiome profiling is the process of understanding the species present in a microbial community, also known as the microbiome. The microbiome can be present in many different environments, including the human gut. [news-medical.net]
The present study describes the prevalence of these bacteria in a group of children with nosocomial diarrhea, an entity that requires precise therapeutic management. Material and methods. [dialnet.unirioja.es]
Treatment
We discuss treatment, causes and mechanisms of this rare complication from this treatment and review the bibliography about mechanisms for the different types of immunological reactions that may occur after treatment with collagenase Clostridium histolyticum [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
[…] as treatment for primary C. difficile infection. [nejm.org]
Prognosis
Infectious involvement of the aorta and associated vascular structures portends a poor prognosis with a 57% mortality rate. Our case and updated review demonstrates the implications of C. septicum vascular seeding and subsequent treatment outcomes. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Etiology
Clostridium difficile, a Gram positive spore-forming anaerobe, is considered a frequent etiological agent; recently, C. perfringens has also been implicated and may act, synergically with C. difficile. [dialnet.unirioja.es]
The etiology of NEC is not understood, although bacterial colonization of the gut is believed to play a role Footnote 11. Clostridium spp. have been particularly associated with more severe cases of NEC Footnote 4, Footnote 11. [canada.ca]

How can Clostridium difficile transmission be prevented in hospitals and other health care settings? Frequent hand washing (with soap and water) is an effective way to prevent the spread of the bacteria. [ccohs.ca]
If you cannot drink enough fluids to prevent dehydration, call your doctor. How Do I Prevent It? Thoroughly cook foods, particularly meat, poultry, and gravies, to a safe internal temperature. [foodsafety.gov]
