All patients admitted to our tertiary care hospital from 1 December 2007 to 10 June 2008 were screened for methicillin (meticillin)-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nasal colonization, and the isolates were tested for mupirocin susceptibility by using Etest. Mupirocin resistance (MR) was noted to occur in 3.4% of MRSA carriers, and high-level MR was noted to occur in 0.62% of carriers.
2007年12月1日至2008年6月10日期间入住我们三级护理医院的所有患者均接受了耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)鼻腔定植筛查,并使用Etest法对分离株进行了莫匹罗星敏感性测试。结果发现,3.4%的MRSA携带者出现了莫匹罗星耐药(MR),0.62%的携带者出现了高水平MR。
