Significance of airborne transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in an otolaryngology-head and neck surgery unit.

Archives of otolaryngology--head & neck surgery - 1 Jun 2001

Shiomori T, Miyamoto H, Makishima K

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To quantitatively investigate the existence of airborne methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in a hospital environment and to perform phenotyping and genotyping of MRSA isolates to study MRSA epidemiology. DESIGN: Prospective surveillance of patients with MRSA infections or colonizations was performed, as was an observational study of environmental airAirborne samples were taken by an...
