Evaluation of the impact of nasal colonization with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus on left ventricular assist device infections

In this retrospective cohort study, we evaluated the predictive value of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nasal swabs for the development of MRSA infections in patients with left ventricular assist devices. In 106 patients, the MRSA nasal swab had a negative predictive value of 92....

description In this retrospective cohort study, we evaluated the predictive value of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) nasal swabs for the development of MRSA infections in patients with left ventricular assist devices. In 106 patients, the MRSA nasal swab had a negative predictive value of 92.9% demonstrating a potential role in antibiotic de-escalation.
