Abstract
After changing empiric treatment of febrile neutropenia from meropenem to cefepime, the effect on Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) was investigated. The change was assessed using an autoregressive model. A significant increase in CDI rates occurred following the introduction of cefepime. There may be an association between increased cefepime usage and CDI.
