An evaluation of risk factors for Staphylococcus aureus colonization in a pre-surgical population

Staphylococcus aureus (SA) colonization has significant implications in healthcare-associated infections. Here we describe a prospective study conducted in pre-surgical outpatients, done with the aim of identifying demographic and clinical risk factors for SA colonization. We found younger age to be...
