Figure 1. All C. difficile infection cases and the crude annual incidence rates per 10,000 person-years for CPRD/HES (A) and PHE (B) n: number of cases, CPRD: Clinical Practice Research Datalink database, HES: Hospital Episode Statistics database, PHE: Public Health England database * 2012 contains data from 1st January – 31st of March only. The crude rate is based on estimated full year data (2012 figures were multiplied by 4 to make full year estimates)
