Of hand infections treated in a suburban community hospital, 65% were found to have cultures positive for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). This incidence of MRSA infection is comparable to MRSA infection rates found in county hospitals and trauma center hand infection populations. MRSA should be recognized as a common primary pathogen in hand infections.
在一家郊区社区医院接受治疗的手部感染病例中,发现65%的患者培养出耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)呈阳性。这种MRSA感染发生率与在县医院和创伤中心手部感染人群中发现的MRSA感染率相当。MRSA应被视为手部感染中一种常见的主要病原体。
