Unexpected Multidrug Resistance of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Urine Samples: A Single-Center Study.

Purpose: Infections of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are becoming an increasingly concerning clinical problem. The aim of this study was to assess the development of MRSA in urine cultures in a major public university-affiliated hospital and the therapeutical and hygiene-related possibilities for reducing resistance.

Materials And Methods: This study included 243 samples from patients diagnosed with MRSA infection over a period of 6 years.
