INTRODUCTION: In order to evaluate a Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) outbreak between December 2018 and February 2019 in the internal medicine ward of a district hospital in Silesia, 6 stools from 5 patients were examined. MATERIAL AND METHODS: C. difficile was identified, genes encoding glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) – gluD, A/B – tcdA/tcdB and binary – cdtA/cdtB toxins, ermB were determined by mPCR and antibiotic resistance by means of E-Tests. RESULTS: Women predominated among the patients (4/5). All the 6 C. difficile isolates belonged to hyperepidemic ribotype 027, were positive for all genes and were resistant to moxifloxacin, erythromycin, clindamycin, rifampicin, imipenem, and chloramphenicol. CONCLUSIONS: The obtained results indicate that the hyperepidemic C. difficile clone is spreading in the ward.

WSTĘP: W celu oceny ogniska zakażenia Clostridioides difficile (Clostridioides difficile infection – CDI) w okresie od grudnia 2018 r. do lutego 2019 r. na oddziale chorób wewnętrznych szpitala powiatowego na Śląsku objęto badaniem materiały kliniczne od 5 pacjentów (6 stolców). MATERIAŁ I METODY: Zidentyfikowano izolaty C. difficile, geny kodujące dehydrogenazę glutaminianową (GDH) – gluD, toksyny A/B – tcdA/tcdB oraz geny cdtA/cdtB kodujące toksynę binarną, ermB wykryto za po-mocą mPCR, a antybiotykooporność za pomocą E-testów. WYNIKI: Wśród pacjentów dominowały kobiety (4/5). Wszystkie szczepy C. difficile (6) należały do hiperepi-demicznego rybotypu 027, we wszystkich szczepach wykazano obecność badanych genów oraz wykryto opor-ność na: moksyfloksacynę, erytromycynę, klindamycynę, ryfampicynę, imipenem i chloramfenikol. WNIOSKI: Uzyskane wyniki świadczą o szerzeniu się na oddziale hiperepidemicznego klonu C. difficile o rybotypie 027.
