Are There Better Methods of Monitoring MRSA Control than Bacteraemia Surveillance? An Observational Database Study
BACKGROUND: Despite a substantial burden of non-bacteraemic methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) disease, most MRSA surveillance schemes are based on bacteraemias. Using bacteraemia as an outcome, trends at hospital level are difficult to discern, due to random variation. We investigat...
