Vancomycin intermediate-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VISA).

Orthopedic nursing - 1 Jan 2000

Miller N C, Rudoy R C

Abstract excerpt

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been an infectious disease problem since the early 1980s and until recently was uniformly susceptible to vancomycin, the drug known as the "last resort." Recent reports indicate that Staphylococcus aureus has continued to mutate and has developed intermediate resistance to vancomycin (VISA). This article lists some of the potential clinical manifestations of...
