Staphylococcus epidermidis Colonization Is Highly Clonal Across US Cardiac Centers

28 Mar 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Little is known about the clonality of Staphylococcus epidermidis in the United States, although it is the predominant pathogen in infections involving prosthetic materials, including ventricular assist devices (VADs). METHODS: Seventy-five VAD recipients at 4 geographically diverse US cardiac centers were prospectively followed up to 1 year of VAD support. The anterior nares, sternum, and (future)...
