Prevalence of vancomycin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) in methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains isolated from burn wound infections
OBJECTIVES The increase in resistance of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains to vancomycin has been perceived as a formidable threat in the therapeutic fields. The present study investigated the vancomycin resistance traits of MRSA isolates [vancomycin resistant S. aureus (VRSA)] collected from burn patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-nine of 40 isolates of Staphyloc...
متن کاملmolecular characterization and distribution of class 1 integron-bearing methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus strains in burn patients, tehran, iran
conclusions the study revealed a high prevalence of multi-drug resistance (mdr), class 1 integron, sccmec type iii, and spa type t030 amongst mrsa associated with burn wounds in an iranian hospital. the existence of sccmec type iii in burn patients emphasizes the nosocomial origin of these strains. objectives the aim of this study was to determine the distribution and molecular types of mrsa in...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from clinical samples: A three year study in Tehran, Iran
INTRODUCTION Emergence of vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (VISA) and vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA) strains has led to great concern in global public health in both developing and developed countries. This study investigated distribution and molecular characterization of VRSA strains in Tehran's hospitals using a combination of molecular typing methods. MATERIALS AND METH...
متن کاملMupirocin-resistant, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains in Canadian hospitals.
Mupirocin resistance in Staphylococcus aureus is increasingly being reported in many parts of the world. This study describes the epidemiology and laboratory characterization of mupirocin-resistant methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains in Canadian hospitals. Broth microdilution susceptibility testing of 4,980 MRSA isolates obtained between 1995 and 2004 from 32 Canadian hospitals was d...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern of Staphylococcus aureus Strains Isolated from Hospitalized Patients in Tehran, Iran
Staphylococcus aureus is a major bacterial pathogen that causes different community- and hospital-acquired infections. Over time, strains of S. aureus have become resistant to different antibiotics including penicillinase-resistant penicillins. Having data on the local antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of this pathogen is necessary for selection of appropriate...
