Prevention of Environmental Cross-Contamination
with Clostridium difficile bacteria
Technical Bulletin

November, 2003
Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic, spore-forming, Gram-positive rod. Concerns relating to outbreaks and
colonization with C. difficile have been reported from hospitals and long-term facilities for the past decade. Endemic
infections due to C. difficile have identified that patient-to-patient transmission of this microorganism can occur via
hands, contaminated patient-care equipment or environmental surfaces.
Recommendations for Control and Prevention:
• Facilities with endemic C. difficile should focus control efforts on intensive care units and other areas where
the transmission rate is highest. Such units may serve as a reservoir of C. difficile enabling spread to other
units when patients are transferred.
• In facilities with ongoing C. difficile transmission, assess the adequacy and frequency of cleaning procedures
for disinfecting environmental surfaces such as bedrails, carts, doorknobs, faucet handles, toilet seats,
computer terminals, knobs of electronic equipment such patient-care monitors and bedside commodes and
ensure procedure compliance. Surviving C. difficile exposed to the air on surfaces for periods exceeding 4- 6
hours will form spores rendering them impossible to kill on environmental surfaces. Frequent cleaning and
disinfection will help to reduce transmission by killing C. difficile bacteria prior to its ability to form spores.
CDC guidelines recommend the use of an EPA registered disinfectant for cleaning against C.difficile.
• If possible, dedicate the use of medical equipment and devices to a single patient or cohort. If such items are
used between patients, clean and disinfect them thoroughly and frequently, at least every four (4) hours, u
sing Sklar Disinfectant solution as per its labeled instructions.
Extensive environmental contamination with C.difficile has been noted in some studies. A recent laboratory study
verified the ability of Sklar Disinfectant (EPA Registration Number 70144-1-31118) to kill C. difficile within 3 minutes
at 20°C/69°F. by methods of the AOAC Germicidal Spray Test.
