Abstract: infection (CDI) guidelines advise against repeat testing within 7 days. This retrospective study identified factors associated with 7-day repeat testing. Attending physicians (aOR = 0.67) and advanced practice practitioners (aOR = 0.61) ordered fewer repeat tests compared to residents. Further research is necessary to address inappropriate repeat testing.
