Summary

The primary purpose of this clinical investigation is to verify the performance of the GenePOC CDiff test on the GenePOC instrument. This will be achieved by comparing the GenePOC CDiff test to the Toxigenic Culture (TC) and cell cytotoxicity neutralisation assay (CCNA), a conventional method considered as gold standard for detection of toxigenic Clostridium difficile in stool specimens.

Conditions

  • Clostridium Difficile Infection

Interventions

DEVICE

Comparison between GenePOC PCR and Reference Method

Stool specimen will be tested with the GenePOC CDiff test on the GenePOC Instrument. The results will be compared to Reference Method defined as direct and enriched culture method for observation of a toxigenic Clostridium difficile strain.
