摘要: In the period 1975 to 1981, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) emerged as an important nosocomial pathogen in tertiary care centers United States. To determine if prevalence of this organism has continued increase, a questionnaire was sent hospital epidemiologists 360 acute hospitals. A total 256 (71%) individuals responded. Overall, 97% (246/256) responding hospitals reported having patients with MRSA 1987 through 1989. Respondents 217 provided estimates number cases seen 1987, 1988 and The percentage respondents reporting one or more increased from 88% 96.3% 1989 (p = .0008). percent large numbers (greater than equal 50) per year 18% 32% .0006). Increasing frequency outbreaks observed community, community-teaching, federal, municipal university
