Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Diabetic foot clinics have been reported as a source of acquisition of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). We undertook a 10-year review of patients infected or colonized with MRSA from a tertiary care hospital diabetic foot clinic and describe the epidemiology and genotypes of newly acquired MRSA in comparison with the community at large. METHODS: All new MRSA cases from the diabetic...
