Abstract excerpt

The genotype of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains isolated from several foci in the same patient was studied to identify the rate of infections caused by multiple MRSA strains during hospitalization. Twenty-one patients with MRSA bacteraemia and other specimens diagnosed...
