DOI: 10.1055/s-0042-1743877
Abstract: BACKGROUND Due to direct access through the nasopharyngeal mucosa, endoscopic endonasal (EEA) procedures are inherently contaminated. The reported rate of postoperative meningitis in EEA procedures is 0.7-3%. There are a variety of approaches to minimize… read more here.

Similar Clinical Severity and Outcomes for Methicillin-Resistant and Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus aureus Pediatric Musculoskeletal Infections
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Open Forum Infectious Diseases"
DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofx013
Abstract: Abstract Background Prior studies of pediatric musculoskeletal infection have suggested that methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections result in worse outcomes compared with infections with methicillin-susceptible S aureus (MSSA) strains. Based on these results, clinical prediction… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofy210.1956
Abstract: Abstract Background Staphylococcus aureus (SA) causes morbidity and mortality in the NICU. While surveillance, with decolonization, is recommended for MRSA outbreak control, the impact of such strategies on endemic MSSA infections is less known. We… read more here.

Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia Due to MRSA vs. MSSA: What Should Guide Empiric Therapy?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Antibiotics"
DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics11070851
Abstract: The guidelines on ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) recommend an empiric therapy against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) according to its prevalence rate. Considering the MRSA and MSSA VAP prevalence over the last 9 years in our tertiary… read more here.
