Abstract:
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major health concern in hospital environment. The isolates resistance to most previously used antibiotics is clearly escalating. In many hospitals, MRSA became mostly universal in the hospital environment. Health care workers (HCWs) can transmit MRSA from patient to patient by their contaminated hands, gloves, aprons and other instruments
