An assessment was made of the necessity of performing routine screening for Staphylococcus aureus in stool specimens. A total of 527 stool specimens were evaluated. Because of the rare incidence of staphylococcal enterocolitis and the high ($2.50) screening cost, the results of this evaluation suggest that such a screening need not be performed routinely.
对粪便标本进行金黄色葡萄球菌常规筛查的必要性进行了评估。共评估了527份粪便标本。由于葡萄球菌性小肠结肠炎发病率低,且筛查成本高(2.50美元),该评估结果表明无需常规进行此类筛查。
