Figure 1

RT106 is the second most prevalent molecular type in a Tucson-area hospital. Top chart depicts ribotype distribution of 519 tcdB PCR-positive and/or TcdA/B ELISA-positive C. difficile strains from patient stool samples collected from August 2015 to July 2018 (8.2015 to 7.2018). Ribotype frequency and percent of total sample size are shown in parenthesis. Overall, RT106 is the second most frequently isolated molecular type, while RT027 is the most prevalent ribotype. Bottom charts depict ribotype distribution in 12-month periods. RT106 ranked second to RT027 as the most frequently isolated molecular type during 8.2015 to 7.2016 and 8.2017 to 7.2018. RT106 was the third most dominant ribotype during 8.2016 to 7.2017.
