Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Infection control measures against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are challenging in advanced neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) providing care for high-risk newborns. To design and implement better infection control strategies, it is necessary to identify endemic MRSA clones that are recurrently detected and understand how they survive and transmit in the NICU. METHODS: We...
