Antimicrobial susceptibility and molecular typing of MRSA in cystic fibrosis
14 Jun 2013
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients in the United States is approximately 25%. Little is known about the relative proportion of hospital- versus community-associated strains or the antimicrobial susceptibility of MRSA in different CF centers. We hypothesized that the majority of MRSA isolates obtained from children with CF are those...
