Summary

[edit]
Description
English: C. difficile infection and recurrence cycle. A healthy microbiota is refractive to C. difficile spore colonization from external reservoirs; however, disruption to the microbiota, especially through antibiotic exposure, can result in intestinal dysbiosis and the subsequent loss of colonization resistance. This creats an enviroment susceptible to C. difficile infection (CDI). Antibiotics used to treat CDI can perpetuate the intestinal dysbiosis and, in the presence on C. difficile spores, can lead to the recurrence of disease. A combination of antibiotics and microbiome restorative options have been shown to reduce the risk of disease recurrence. Created with BioRender.com.
