Genomic epidemiologic assessment implicates prolonged silent carriage, virulence factors and transmission between staff and patients in a NICU outbreak of MRSA

2021-07-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Introduction</h4> Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an important pathogen in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) that carries significant morbidity and mortality. Improving our understanding of MRSA transmission dynamics, especially among high risk patients, is an infection prevention priority. <h4>Methods</h4> We investigated a cluster of clinical MRSA cases in the NICU...
