Methicillin-ResistantStaphylococcus aureus1
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004 Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is first and foremost a pathogen of healthcare settings. It is the most common pathogen associated with nosocomial infections in the United States, particularly nosocomial pneumonia and surgical site infections. It is also a frequent cause of bloodstream and skin and soft tissue infections.
