The Importance of the Detection of Staphylococcus aureus Strain Characteristics Associated With Perioperative Transmission of Antibiotic Resistance
<i> </i>Detection and clonal transmission of <i>S. aureus</i> multilocus sequence types 5, 8, 105, 30, 59, 72, 188, and 256 among anesthesia workspace reservoirs are associated with greater odds of 30-day postoperative healthcare-associated infection development and/or patient cultures vs. other anesthesia workspace isolates.
