A secondary spread of an imported methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain (MRSA) to two other patients occurred within a Danish surgical ward in spite of isolation of a multitraumatized index-patient immediately after arrival from a hospital in the Mediterranean area. The two other colonized patients were later transferred to other hospitals in Denmark where it became apparent that they had developed serious infections with the MRSA strain.
to prevent spread of imported MRSA within Danish hospitals, strict adherence to isolation procedures and a high level of general hygiene is essential not only when patients are transferred from hospitals situated in endemic areas of MRSA abroad, but also when admitted from Danish hospital wards where known cases of colonisation or infection with MRSA exist.
尽管一名多发伤的索引患者从地中海地区的一家医院抵达后立即被隔离，但丹麦一家外科病房内一株进口的耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）仍传播给了另外两名患者。另外两名被定植的患者后来被转至丹麦的其他医院，在那里很明显他们已因MRSA菌株而发生严重感染。
为防止进口MRSA在丹麦医院内传播，不仅在患者从国外MRSA流行地区的医院转入时，而且在从丹麦存在已知MRSA定植或感染病例的医院病房收治患者时，严格遵守隔离程序和保持高度的一般卫生水平至关重要。
