  • Title: Epidemiology of staphylococcal infections--a USA perspective.
    Author: Thornsberry C.
    Journal: J Chemother; 1994 Apr; 6 Suppl 2():61-5. PubMed ID: 7799056.
    Abstract:
    Data collected from the National Nosocomial Infection Surveillance show that Gram-positive organisms, and Staphylococcus aureus in particular, are a major cause of nosocomial infections, especially wound infections, pneumonia and bacteraemia. Currently in the United States, approximately 18% of S. aureus isolates show intrinsic resistance to methicillin.
