lüll Incidence of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from patients treated at the Clinical Center of Skopje, Macedonia, with special attention to MRSA Cekovska Z; Panovski N; Petrovska M; Kristof K; Rozgonyi FActa Microbiol Immunol Hung 2005[]; 52 (3-4): 373-84The distribution of 3497 Staphylococcus aureus strains according to methicillin resistance, specimens, departmental profession and antibiotic resistance patterns was analysed. The strains were cultured from the patients of the Clinical Center of Skopje, Macedonia, between 1 January 2002 and 31 December 2004. The majority of the isolates was obtained from suppurated wounds (28.5%), nares (21%), intratracheal tubes (13%) and blood cultures (11.8%). Overall 1100 (31.4%) of the isolates was methicillin-resistant with 1 microg oxacillin disc. Of these 35.5%, 30.5% and 10.4% were cultured from wounds, intratracheal tubes and blood samples, respectively. The prevalence of MRSA strains was 78.6%, 75%, 44.2% and 37.3% in specimens of ICU, Coma Center, General Surgery and Haematology patients. There were extremely big differences in the frequency of MRSA between departments with particular specialisation. The 2397 MSSA isolates belonged to practically one antibiotic resistance pattern characterised with penicillin resistance and susceptibility to other antistaphylococcal drugs. The 1100 MRSA isolates distributed to four antibiotic resistance patterns on the basis of their resistance to oxacillin, penicillin, amoxicillin+clavulanic acid, azithromycin, clindamycin, amikacin, gentamicin, ciprofloxacin, trimethoprim+sulphamethoxasole, vancomycin and teicoplanin. All the MRSA isolates were multidrug resistant but sensitive to glycopeptides.|*Methicillin Resistance[MESH]|Anti-Bacterial Agents/pharmacology[MESH]|Cross Infection/*epidemiology/microbiology[MESH]|Drug Resistance, Bacterial[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Incidence[MESH]|Microbial Sensitivity Tests[MESH]|Republic of North Macedonia/epidemiology[MESH]|Staphylococcal Infections/*epidemiology/microbiology[MESH]|Staphylococcus aureus/*drug effects[MESH] |
