Prevalence of Pseudomonas was categorized based on climate zones according to the International Energy Conservation Code.

Pseudomonas was most prevalent within the Hot Humid climate, where it was isolated in 11.6% of DFI cultures. Pseudomonas was least prevalent within the Very Cold climate, where it was isolated in 6.2% of cultures. In the multivariable logistic regression model, hot and humid climates were associated with an odds of P. aeruginosa of 1.92 (97.5% CI, 1.69\u20132.20), a hot, dry climate was associated with an odds of 1.65 (97.5% CI, 1.44\u20131.90), and a humid climate was associated with an odds of 1.65 (97.5% CI, 1.45\u20131.89). A lower Charlson Comorbidity Index, inpatient admission, recent antipseudomonal antibiotic use, and swabs were less likely to have Pseudomonas. Recent admission increased the odds of P. aeruginosa (odds ratio [OR], 1.34; 97.5% CI, 1.27\u20131.41). History of P. aeruginosa was associated with an increase in P. aeruginosa (OR, 8.90; 97.5% CI, 8.29\u20139.56).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The prevalence of DFI organisms varies within different US climates.
