To determine if children adopted to Swedish families from countries with a high carrier rate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are infected or colonized with MRSA.
From January 2000 to May 2005, 23 adopted children from 6 countries were examined for MRSA at the University hospital in Lund after their arrival in Sweden.
Thirteen of the 23 children (57%) were MRSA positive with a median age of the children at the time MRSA was detected of 6 (range 3-16) months. All MRSA positive children had a history of hospitalization in their native country before arriving in Sweden. The throat was the most frequent and persistent site where MRSA was seen while in sites such as the anterior nares and perineum, MRSA was found more intermittently. The MRSA-positive children were adopted into 13 Swedish families and in 3 families, 6 of 10 family members became MRSA positive.
Children adopted from foreign countries to Swedish families and with a history of hospitalization in their native country were commonly colonized with MRSA. The throat was the most frequent site colonized and transmission of MRSA from adopted children to other family members occurred.
确定从耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）携带率高的国家被瑞典家庭收养的儿童是否感染或定植有MRSA。
2000年1月至2005年5月，来自6个国家的23名被收养儿童抵达瑞典后，在隆德大学医院接受了MRSA检测。
23名儿童中有13名（57%）MRSA呈阳性，检测到MRSA时儿童的中位年龄为6（3 - 16）个月。所有MRSA阳性儿童在抵达瑞典之前在其本国都有住院史。喉咙是最常发现且持续存在MRSA的部位，而在前鼻孔和会阴等部位，MRSA的发现则更具间歇性。MRSA阳性儿童被收养进入13个瑞典家庭，在3个家庭中，10名家庭成员中有6名MRSA呈阳性。
从国外被瑞典家庭收养且在其本国曾有住院史的儿童通常定植有MRSA。喉咙是最常被定植的部位，并且发生了MRSA从被收养儿童传播到其他家庭成员的情况。
