Staphylococcus aureus ST764-SCCmecII high-risk clone in bloodstream infections revealed through national genomic surveillance integrating clinical data

Abstract excerpt

Antimicrobial resistance is a global health concern, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is one of the highest-priority organisms exhibiting this phenotype. Here, we performed a national surveillance integrating patient clinical data of S. aureus isolated from bloodstream infections. We performed genome sequencing, standardized antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and collected clinical...
