In recent years, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) orbital cellulitis (OC) has drawn increasing clinical and public health concern. We present a case series of MRSA OC encountered at ...
A multi-centre retrospective case series investigating MRSA OC in Australia from 2013 to 2022. Patients of all ages were included....
Nine cases of culture-positive non-multi-resistant MRSA (nmMRSA) OC were identified at four tertiary institutions across Australia (7 male, 2 female). Mean age was 17.1 ± 16.7 years (range 13-days to ...
NMMRSA OC can follow an aggressive clinical course causing severe orbital and intracranial complications across a wide demographic. However, early recognition, initiation of targeted antibiotics and s...
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has an increasing prevalence of multi-drug resistance. There is an urgent need for developing novel approaches to combat MRSA infection. Mucosal pent...
This study aims to identify risk factors associated with Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection in children diagnosed with acute osteomyelitis (AO) and to elucidate the laborator...
We conducted a retrospective analysis involving 123 children with acute osteomyelitis treated at our hospital. Upon admission, we measured white blood cell (WBC) counts, C-reactive protein (CRP) level...
The MRSA group had a significantly higher average age compared to the non-MRSA group (P < 0.05). Notably, the incidence of suppurative arthritis was significantly lower in the MRSA group (P < 0.05). A...
In children newly admitted with acute osteomyelitis, a CRP level exceeding 73.23 µg/mL may indicate a high likelihood of MRSA infection. For children with AO who have been hospitalized for three days ...
The objectives of this work were to know the prevalence of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) infections in the paediatric population of our health department, to describe the risk factors for inf...
A retrospective, descriptive and analytical study of infections produced by MRSA versus those produced by MSSA was carried out during the years 2014 to 2018. Risk factors for MRSA infection were studi...
162 patients with S. aureus infections were identified. Of these, 25 (15.4%) were MRSA. The highest percentages of MRSA infection occurred among children who required hospital admission (23.4%). In th...
Our results suggest the need to review empirical local treatment regimen using drugs active against MRSA in infections of probable staphylococcal origin admitted to the hospital, especially if they ha...
The preferred antibiotic salvage regimen for persistent methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (MRSAB) is unclear. We sought to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of vancomycin plus...
Single-center, retrospective cohort study between January 1, 2016, and December 31, 2021....
State University of New York Upstate University Hospital, a 748-bed tertiary care, academic medical center in Syracuse, NY....
Adult patients were included if they had blood cultures positive for MRSA ≥72 h, received vancomycin monotherapy initially, and received vancomycin plus ceftaroline for ≥24 h. Patients were excluded i...
Patients were medically complex with a median Pitt bacteremia score of 3, 63.3% (19/30) were admitted to the intensive care unit, and 66.7% (20/30) had infective endocarditis. Vancomycin-associated ac...
Vancomycin plus ceftaroline may represent an effective and well-tolerated salvage regimen option for persistent MRSAB....
Staphylococcus aureus is a common germ in bacterial infections in children. The rate of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) is increasing lately....
The main aim is to know the rate of positive cultures to MRSA in Spanish pediatric emergency departments. The secondary aims are to analyse the risk factors for MRSA isolation (patient origin, history...
Retrospective multicenter study (07/01/2017-06/30/2018) with review of patient histories with isolation of S. aureus in samples of any origin obtained in 8 pediatric emergency departments of the Infec...
During this period, S. aureus was detected in 403 patients (average age 75.8 ± 59.2 months; 54.8% male): 28.8% hospital-related infections (HRI) and 71.2% community-related infections (CRI). Overall, ...
The overall MRSA rate was one in 6 staphylococcal infections. Higher MRSA rates were detected in samples of suppurating skin injuries and in foreign children or in children with a history of previous ...
We aimed to determine the synergistic effects of ceftaroline (CPT) in combination with daptomycin (DAP), vancomycin (VAN), or linezolid (LNZ) against various methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureu...
MRSA strains randomly selected from 2014 to 2018 were studied. Checkerboard titration and in vitro time-kill analyses were used to determine the synergistic activities of the antibiotic combinations....
A total of 10 genetically distinct MRSA strains were included in this study. The checkerboard titration analysis revealed that the CPT-DAP, CPT-VAN, and CPT-LNZ combinations had a synergistic effect a...
The CPT-DAP combination showed better synergistic activity than the CPT-VAN and CPT-LNZ combinations against the enrolled MRSA strains. DAP, rather than VAN or LNZ, might be a better choice for CPT co...
The methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has a high negative predictive value (NPV). We aimed to understand if there was a difference in the NPV of the MR...
We performed a single-center, retrospective cohort study of adults with a positive respiratory culture and MRSA nasal PCR admitted to a surgical ICU from 2016 to 2019. Patients were stratified by surg...
We analyzed 61 patients: 42.6% (n = 26) ACS-ICU and 57.4% (n = 35) CVICU. There were no differences in age, comorbidities, prior MRSA infection, recent antibiotic use, immunocompromised status, or ren...
The MRSA nasal PCR screen has a high NPV for ruling out MRSA pneumonia in critically ill surgical patients. However, patients in the CVICU and patients hospitalized ≥5 d had a longer time to de-escala...
Severe infections of virulent methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are a serious health problem. The present study aimed to investigate clonal spread, virulence and antimicrobial resista...
Molecular identification and mecA gene detection were performed with PCR. Clonal relatedness was evaluated by RAPD PCR and MLST. MRSA epidemiology, virulence and resistance patterns were investigated ...
