pubmed:abstractText |
Reports from various geographic regions indicate that the prevalence of community-acquired methicillin-resistant (MRSA) infection is increasing. The primary reservoir is the anterior nares; nasal carriage is a risk factor for infection in a variety of populations. Little is known about MRSA nasal carriage rates among children in Nashville, TN and the associated likelihood of community MRSA transmission.
