Risk Factors of Nasal Carriage of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus and its Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern in Namazi hospital Healthcare Workers in Shiraz, Iran
Background & Aims: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major nosocomial pathogen worldwide. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors of nasal carriage of MRSA and its antibiotic susceptibility pattern among healthcare workers at Namazi Hospital (Shiraz-Iran) Methods: In a cross-sectional study from July to November 2006, nasal swabs were taken from 600 stratif...
متن کاملTreatment of Staphylococcus aureus colonization and prophylaxis for infection with topical intranasal mupirocin: an evidence-based review.
Most Staphylococcus aureus infections are endogenously acquired, and treatment of nasal carriage is one potential strategy for prevention. We critically appraised the published evidence regarding the efficacy of intranasal mupirocin for eradication of S. aureus nasal carriage and for prophylaxis of infection. Sixteen randomized, controlled trials were appraised; 9 trials assessed eradication of...
متن کاملIntranasal mupirocin for reduction of Staphylococcus aureus infections in surgical patients with nasal carriage: a systematic review.
OBJECTIVES The majority of nosocomial Staphylococcus aureus infections originate from the patients' own flora, with nasal carriage of S. aureus before surgical procedures being a risk factor for subsequent infection. The objective of this review was to assess whether intranasal mupirocin treatment of nasal S. aureus carriers before surgery results in a reduction of the post-operative S. aureus ...
متن کاملPreoperative decolonization effective at reducing staphylococcal colonization in total joint arthroplasty patients.
Staphylococcus decolonization prior to surgery is used to prevent surgical site infections (SSIs) after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). To determine if current treatment protocols result in successful decolonization of methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), 106 consecutive patients were screened for nasal MSSA/MRSA colonization pre-operatively and on ...
متن کاملEfficacy of Mupirocin Ointment in Eradication of Staphylococcus aureus Nasal Carriage in Intensive Care Unit Staff and Patients
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality among intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Nasal carriage is one of the main routs of S. aureus transmission between hospital personnel and patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of mupirocin oi...
