چکیده
Health care-associated infections (HAIs) are caused by microorganisms found in health care centers. Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients the population that most frequently infected with HAIs. One of common cause HAIs is Staphylococcus aureus. Methicillin-resistant Staplylococcus aureus (MRSA) a strain resistant to ?-lactam. Methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) and MRSA contaminate medical equipments, including ICU, causes Therefore, research must be done determine levels bacterial contamination on equipments objects hospital ward. This study aimed detect MSSA ICU Puri Raharja Hospital. was descriptive observational design.

متن کاملMethicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the intensive care unit.
Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major nosocomial pathogen that causes severe morbidity and mortality worldwide. MRSA strains are endemic in many American and European hospitals and account for 29%-35% of all clinical isolates. Recent studies have documented the increased costs associated with MRSA infection, as well as the importance of colonisation pressure. Surveillanc...
متن کاملMethicillin-Sensitive Staphylococcus aureus CC398 in Intensive Care Unit, France
During testing for Staphylococcus aureus in an intensive care unit in France in 2011, we found that methicillin-sensitive S. aureus clonal complex 398 was the most frequent clone (29/125, 23.2%). It was isolated from patients (5/89, 5.6%), health care workers (2/63, 3.2%), and environmental sites (15/864, 1.7%). Results indicate emergence of this clone in a hospital setting.
