Article Synopsis
- Infections significantly impact pediatric health worldwide, prompting the Staphylo Research Network to study pediatric patients in Colombia between 2018 and 2021, focusing on their epidemiological and microbiological characteristics.
- The study analyzed 8,157 culture isolations from 20 centers, noting that methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) was more common than methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), particularly in different regional hospitals.
- Findings highlight that while MSSA was dominant, regional variations in MRSA prevalence exist, and most strains showed susceptibility to common antibiotics, emphasizing the need for ongoing infection monitoring in children.
