Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in elderly residents of care homes: colonization rates and molecular epidemiology.

The Journal of hospital infection - 1 Mar 2013

Horner C, Parnell P, Hall D, Kearns A, Heritage J, Wilcox M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity in healthcare and community settings; however, there is a paucity of large-scale, longitudinal studies monitoring the occurrence of MRSA in the care home setting. AIM: To determine the molecular epidemiology of MRSA colonizing elderly residents of care homes. METHODS: Residents in 65 care homes in...
