Fig. 1. — (a) Timeline of hospital stay for five patients (A–E) and the time points at which multidrug-resistant E. faecium strains were isolated during routine screening between 2001 and 2008. (b) Detail for patients B, C and E, showing the overlap in their hospital stay on the nephrology ward in 2007 and the associated ARE/VRE isolations. Dark blue, patient hospital stay; orange, ARE/VRE-positive screening; ICU, patient in an intensive care unit. If an isolation time point does not overlap with hospital stay, the screening was performed at home as part of outbreak control studies.
