| (documentation MRSA EnglishLanguage "Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a group o bacteria that are genetically distinct from other strains of Staphylococcus aureus. MRSA is responsible for several difficult-to-treat infections in humans. It caused more than 100,000 deaths attributable to antimicrobial resistance in 2019. MRSA is any strain of S. aureus that has developed (through natural selection) or acquired (through horizontal gene transfer) a multiple drug resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics. MRSA is common in HospitalBuildings, Prisons, and nursing homes, where people with open wounds, invasive devices such as catheters, and weakened immune systems are at greater risk of healthcare associated infection. MRSA began as a hospital-acquired infection but has become community-acquired, as well as Livestock -acquired. The terms HA-MRSA (healthcare-associated or hospital-acquired MRSA), CA-MRSA (community-associated MRSA), and LA-MRSA (livestock-associated MRSA) reflect this.[from Wikipedia]") | Medicine.kif 1984-1994 | |
