Three hundred ninety-one hospitals in the U.S. have a Clostridioides difficile infection rate of zero, as based on the healthcare-associated infections dataset from CMS.
Measures are developed by the CDC and collected through the National Healthcare Safety Network. The measures show how often patients in a particular hospital contract certain infections during the course of medical treatment when compared to similar hospitals. Data was collected from October 2022 to September 2023 and was last updated July 31. The CDC calculates a standardized infection ratio, which may take into account care location, number of patients with an existing infection, lab methods, hospital affiliation with a medical school, hospital bed size, patient age and patient health. The measures apply to all patients treated in acute care hospitals, including adult, pediatric, neonatal, Medicare and non-Medicare patients, according to the CMS data dictionary.
Sixty more hospitals had a rate of zero, the lowest rate possible, for C. diff infections compared to CMS's 2022 list. Here are the 391 hospitals by state and including Puerto Rico:
