Abstract
welcomed a further reduction in MRSA bloodstream infections and announced the latest in a number of measures to drive down rates of Clostridium difficile in hospitals The latest statistics from the Health Protection Agency (HPA) show a decrease of 6.7% in MRSA bacteraemia, while C. difficile infections increased by 7.6% in 2006. Measures such as the MRSA targets, improved surveillance and Performance Improvement Teams have helped hospitals to achieve significant improvements in MRSA rates. These measures will now be applied to C. difficile. More action to tackle C. difficile as MRSA numbers continue to fall
