Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To describe the epidemiologic and molecular investigations that successfully contained an outbreak of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). DESIGN: Isolates of MRSA were typed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and S. aureu...
