| الوصف: | During the COVID-19 pandemic, several factors, such as improved hand hygiene, social distancing, and restricted hospital referral, may have had an influence on the epidemiology ofThe annual CDI incidence rate of nine hospitals participating in the Dutch sentinel CI surveillance with complete data was compared between 2020 and the previous five surveillance years. Trends in characteristics of hospitalised CDI patients in 21-24 participating hospitals were compared between the first (March 13-May 12, 2020) or second Dutch COVID-19 wave (September 17, 2020-January 1, 2021) and the same calendar periods in 2015 through 2019. All analyses were adjusted for trend changes over time.The annual CDI incidence rate in 2020 was lower compared to previous years. During the second wave, the percentage of CDI patients with severe CDI was higher compared to earlier (25·8% in 2020 vs 17·9% in 2015-2019 (RR 1·6; 95%CI 1·1-2·3)). After adjustment for delayedThis study shows that a higher percentage of severe CDI cases was observed during the second COVID-19 wave. This may partially be caused by delayed diagnostics, potentially due to decreased visits to a physician or restricted hospital referral for CO-CDI patients.Dutch ministry of Health. |
