Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine antibiotic resistance trends and carriage of staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) genetic elements in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated in Kuwait hospitals to ascertain whether they were healthcare associated (HA-MRSA) or community associated (CA-MRSA). MATERIALS AND METHODS: In total, 6,922 MRSA isolates obtained from...
