Hospital-onset methicillin-resistant <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> bloodstream infections within tertiary and community hospitals and implications for prevention
The unchanged HO-MRSA BSI SIRs in this study support the need for additional interventions that focus on prevention of the primary sources of MRSA infections. Ongoing systematic surveillance of the primary sources of HO-MRSA BSI should be implemented to inform and monitor best practices for prevention.
