Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major cause of health care-associated infections. In this study, a total of 173 nurses was screened for S aureus nasal colonization, of which 8 (4.6%) were MRSA carriers. Among the MRSA isolates, 6 were mecA positive and oxacillin resistant, and 2 were mecA-positive, oxacillin-susceptible (OS-MRSA) strains. Reports of the OS-MRSA strains are increasing worldwide. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first report on the occurrence of OS-MRSA strains in Iran.
耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）是导致医疗保健相关感染的主要原因。在这项研究中，共筛查了 173 名护士的金黄色葡萄球菌鼻腔定植情况，其中 8 名（4.6%）为 MRSA 携带者。在这些 MRSA 分离株中，6 株 mecA 阳性且对苯唑西林耐药，2 株 mecA 阳性、苯唑西林敏感（OS-MRSA）菌株。OS-MRSA 菌株的报告在全球范围内不断增加。据我们所知，这是伊朗首次报告 OS-MRSA 菌株的发生。
