Minimal Intervention for Controlling Nosocomial Transmission of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Resource Limited Setting with High Endemicity

OBJECTIVE: To control nosocomial transmission of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in resource-limited healthcare setting with high endemicity. METHODS: Three phases of infection control interventions were implemented in a University-affiliated hospital between 1-January-2004 and 31...
