Effect of the Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Nasal Polymerase Chain Reaction on Vancomycin Days and Clinical Outcomes in Pneumonia
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated that the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) nasal polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay has a high negative predictive value for MRSA pneumonia, and that a negative result may be used to guide antibiotic de-escalation. Despite increasing...
