Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: an evolutionary, epidemiologic, and therapeutic odyssey.

Stan Deresinski1.   

Abstract

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, first identified just over 4 decades ago, has undergone rapid evolutionary changes and epidemiologic expansion. It has spread beyond the confines of health care facilities, emerging anew in the community, where it is rapidly becoming a dominant pathogen. This has led to an important change in the choice of antibiotics in the management of community-acquired infections and has also led to the development of novel antimicrobials.
