A review of our infection control records revealed 3,159 new isolations of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) from 1988 to 1994. Prior to this period, our approach to MRSA had changed from eradication to containment measures. We found a decline in MRSA rates from 11.4 to 5.2 first isolations per 1,000 deaths and discharges over the study period.
对我们的感染控制记录进行审查后发现,1988年至1994年期间新分离出3159株耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)。在此之前,我们对MRSA的应对方法已从根除措施转变为控制措施。我们发现,在研究期间,MRSA发病率从每1000例死亡和出院病例中的11.4例首次分离下降至5.2例。
