Prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage in healthcare workers.

Maria Ibarra1, Tristan Flatt, Diane Van Maele, Aisha Ahmed, Jaime Fergie, Kevin Purcell.   

Abstract

Thirty (12%) of 257 healthcare workers were colonized with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). There was no significant difference in MRSA colonization among physicians (13%), nurses (12%), and other healthcare professionals (11%). Potential risk factors for MRSA colonization were found in 90% or more of all subjects, including those with MRSA and methicillin-susceptible S. aureus nasal carriage, as well as in persons who were not colonized.
