Among bloodstream methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates from adult patients in a single hospital, susceptibility to co-trimoxazole increased progressively from 31% in 1988 to 92% in 1997 (p<0.0001). If also observed in other institutions, these findings should encourage the performance of a clinical trial of sufficient size to compare co-trimoxazole to vancomycin in treating MRSA infections.
在一家医院成年患者的血流耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)分离株中,对复方新诺明的敏感性从1988年的31%逐渐升至1997年的92%(p<0.0001)。如果在其他机构也观察到这些结果,这些发现应促使开展一项规模足够大的临床试验,以比较复方新诺明与万古霉素治疗MRSA感染的效果。
