Characterisation of methicillin resistant S. aureus strains and risk factors for acquisition in a teaching hospital in northeast India.

Indian journal of medical microbiology - 1 Jan 2000

Sarma J B, Ahmed G U

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: A point prevalence study was carried out in a teaching hospital in Assam to characterise S. aureus strains, establish the rate of colonisation of methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and associated risk factors for its acquisition. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Antibiogram-Resistogram profile...
