Using the Veterans' Health Administration MRSA Directive as a platform to collect methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization isolates and an active MRSA infection surveillance program, the genetic relatedness of colonization and infection isolates was evaluated. Infection and colonization strain concordance was found in 85.7% of patients. The USA 500 MRSA strain was identified in 31.8% of patients.
以退伍军人健康管理局耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)指令为平台,收集耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)定植菌株,并开展一项现行的MRSA感染监测项目,对定植菌株和感染菌株的基因相关性进行了评估。在85.7%的患者中发现感染菌株与定植菌株一致。在31.8%的患者中鉴定出USA 500 MRSA菌株。
