The rate of nosocomial C. difficile in Rhode Island is among the highest in the country. Colonization with C. difficile is uncommon but can lead to falsely identifying a patient as having C. difficile infection. Additionally, unrecognized C. difficile colonization may act as a reservoir in the hospital. During a 19-day period, rectal swabs obtained for routine VRE surveillance were cultured for C. difficile. Overall, 51 (7.9%) of 649 patients had C. difficile by culture.
