[Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Decrease of incidence in a medical resuscitation unit at CHU Charles-Nicolle in Tunis].
Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major pathogen in hospitals. Between 1985 to 1988, there has been an increase in the number of MRSA (92 %) caused by an epidemic emergency in medical care unit of our hospital. Infections control measures allowed to stop these outbreaks (20 % MRSA in 1990). But incidence of MRSA persist to decrease without supplement control measures and in 1994, only 7 % of Staphylococcus aureus strains are MRSA.
