Annual survey of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), 20132
نویسندگان
چکیده
ESR conducts annual surveys of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Each year, all hospital and community microbiology laboratories in New Zealand are asked to refer all MRSA isolated during a one-month period to ESR. Laboratories provide epidemiological information with each isolate referred. At ESR, MRSA are typed to identify MRSA strains. The purpose of these annual surveys is to provide information on the epidemiology of MRSA in New Zealand and to monitor changes over time.

ESR has undertaken national surveillance of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) since MRSA was first identified in New Zealand in 1975. For the next decade, MRSA remained uncommon in New Zealand, with a maximum of 13 people identified with MRSA in any one year. In a 1982 national survey of antimicrobial resistance among S. aureus, just one (0.05%) of 2077 isolates included in the...

Background and Aim: Staphylococcus aureus is gram-positive coccus that is one of the most important causes of nosocomial infections and cause cutaneous or subcutaneous infections. Among these bacteria Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are the most important. The aim of the present study was to investigate the lethal effect of a substance isolated from Staphylococcus aureus unde...
