814 patients also had MRSA nasal screens. 4 women were vaginally colonized with MRSA (0.4%), 77 with MSSA (7.7%) and 179 (17.9%) with GBS; 10 women had MRSA nasal colonization. 50% of MRSA contained PVL including 3 of 4 vaginal strains. Of the 4 women vaginally colonized with MRSA,...
A skin or nasal swab Then, your doctor will send the samples to a lab to be tested for signs of drug-resistant bacteria. MRSA Treatment The treatment that you need depends on what kind of infection you have and where it is. For example, it may be limited to a skin infection, or the...
12. A method for identifying combinations of MRSA, MSSA, MRSE, MSSE, MRCNS, and/or MSCNS in a sample, comprising a. obtaining a sample; b. screening the sample by conducting a PCR-based mecA assay, a PCR-based tuf-Sa assay, and at least one PCR-based assay selected from a femA-Se...
Since inpractice such mixed colonization of the nasal mucosa orof a wound is observed in many patients, the limits ofthe method described above became obvious ratherquicklyw44x. Dependent on the patient collective to beexamined, the positive predictive value of the PCR testsystem is distinctly ...

Mupirocin is a naturally occurring agent produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens and has successfully been used to reduce substantially the nasal and hand carriage of MRSA[16, 17]. This regimen is least effective in patients with either indwelling catheters or lesions on their skin. Mupirocin (pseudomon...

In the last few years, several commercial rapid tests for detection of MRSA directly from nasal and wound swabs, as well as from positive blood cultures, have been developed for use in clinical laboratories. Chromogenic agar plates and real-time PCR and other molecular tests are gaining ...
