- Summary
The Minneapolis VA Evidence-based Synthesis Program was asked to conduct a systematic evidence review regarding the effectiveness of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for treatment of C. difficile infection (CDI), in part to help guide policy makers within the Veterans Health Administration determine if the evidence supporting MT was sufficient to implement FMT programs in their facilities. The topic was nominated by Jason Dominitz, MD, MHS on behalf of the VA Gastroenterology Field Advisory Committee.
