MRSA in dermatology from the perspective of a microbiologist

MUDr.Yvona Lovečková, Ph.D.
Ústav mikrobiologie LF UP a FN Olomouc

The issue of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains has, for several years, been at the forefront of experts in various

medical specialities, including dermatology. Spread of these staphylococcal strains is undesirable, particularly because of challenging

and, not infrequently, costly treatment. Thus, the goal is consistent prevention of MRSA spread by means of targeted therapy of existing

infections, a search for sources, and knowledge of effective hygiene measures.

Keywords: methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, prevention, treatment
