  • Title: [Still increasing incidence of MRSA and ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in society and in hospital-associated cases].
    Author: Skov R, Hansen DS.
    Journal: Ugeskr Laeger; 2011 Nov 07; 173(45):2869-72. PubMed ID: 22053803.
    Abstract:
    This review describes the recent epidemiology for MRSA and ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in Denmark. MRSA community-associated cases continue to increase whereas hospital associated cases are low and stable. Due to an active search and destroy policy secondary transmission is modest. MRSA from pigs is an increasing problem. For ESBL producing Escherichia coli a considerable multi clonal increase has been seen both in the community and in hospitals. There are indications on food being a significant reservoir. For ESBL producing Klebsiella pneumoniae an increasing number of hospital outbreaks have been observed.
