Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Heart failure (HF) may induce bowel hypoperfusion, leading to hypoxia of the villa of the bowel wall and the occurrence of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). However, the risk factors for the development of CDI in HF patients have yet to be fully illustrated, especially because of a lack of evidence from real-world data.
