DAP, Daptomycin; TEI, Teicoplanin; VAN; Vancomycin; ERY, Erythromycin; CIP, Ciprofloxacin; TET, tetracycline.
In boldface type are isolates that were found to be resistant to daptomycin and vancomycin, respectively (i.e., DRE, daptomycin resistant enterococcus, and VRE, vancomycin resistant enterococcus).
