Fig. 1 Trends in number of laboratory requests for Clostridium difficile toxin detection 2003–2007. (a) Total number of laboratory requests for C. difficile toxin detection per year. The figures above the individual bars represent the percentage of positive samples per year. (b) Total number of laboratory requests for C. difficile toxin detection distributed by specialty. Shaded areas: positive results for C. difficile toxin; nonshaded areas: negative results for C. difficile toxin. The figures above the individual bars represent the percentage of samples that were positive per specialty. HAEM-ONC, Haematology and Oncology; INF-DIS, Infectious Diseases, ITU/HDU, Intensive Care and High Dependency Units; MED, General Medicine; MED-CARDIO, Cardiology; MOE, Medicine of the Elderly; MED-GI, Gastrointestinal Medicine; MED-OTHER, includes all other medical specialties including dermatology and rheumatology; MED-RESP, Respiratory Medicine; OBS-GYN, Obstetrics and Gynaecology; RENAL MED, Renal Medicine and Transplant Surgery; SURG-CT, Cardiothoracic Surgery; SURG-GEN, General Surgery; SURG-ORTH, Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery; SURG-OTHER, includes all other surgical specialties including vascular; SURG-URO, Urology; UNKNOWN, Samples that could not be allocated to a particular specialty.

(a) Annual incidence of CDI in the seven specialties with the highest overall incidence of CDI [episodes per 1000 occupied bed days (OBD)]. (b) The overall incidence of CDI episodes per 1000 OBD per specialty.
