- Authors
Gerding, Dale N; Johnson, Stuart
- Abstract
An editorial is presented on the Optimal Timing of Publication and Resulting Rate of Adoption. The article discusses that the trend in adoption of new paradigms is often unpredictable and compounded by economic realities, especially for new products priced higher than existing products; and 2010 CDI treatment guidelines recommending vancomycin for severe CDI and either metronidazole or vancomycin for nonsevere CDI were adopted poorly at best.
