Among 117 cases, It is seen that sensitivities of the real-time PCR, C. difficile toxin assay and the culture for your C. difficile is assessed to be around  87.2% (102 cases; 95% CI, with 80.7%–92.8%), 48.7% (57 cases; 95% CI, 41.0%–59.8%), and the percentage of 65.0% (76 cases; 95% CI, 60.2%–78.5%), respectively. Along with this, the  sensitivity of real-time PCR has been considered higher for C. difficile.

This is the test which looks at the bowel movement (stool) for any harmful substances called the toxins which gets produced by the Clostridioides (formerly Clostridium) and difficile bacteria. It is seen that the gastrointestinal (GI) tract becomes home to many of the healthy bacteria, which sometimes C. difficile becomes one of them.
