The epidemiology and microbiology of MRSA is reviewed. NRSA is usually introduced into an institution by a colonized or infected patient. The principal made of transmission is via the transpatient. The principal mode of transmission is via the transiently colonized hands of hospital personnel. A major reservoir is the nose of the health care workers and presents the source of endemic MRSA in hospitals. In addition, infection control measures are presented for acute-care hospitals and intensive care unitsNa meticilin odporni Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) je postal eden glavnih povzročiteljev okužb v bolnišnicah in postaja vedno pomembnejši tudi v domovihza ostarele. V članku so predstavljeni epidemiološki podatki in opisanemikrobiološke značilnosti MRSA. Praviloma se epidemija z MRSA začne s sprejemom koloniziranega ali okuženega bolnika. Zdravstveno osebje s predhodnokoloniziranimi rokami nato MRSA prenese nase in na druge bolnike. Nososebja predstavlja glavni rezervoar in vir za endemično pojavljanje MRSA v bolnišnici. V nadaljevanju so prikazani ukrepi za nadzor okužb v bolnišnicah in na intenzivnih oddelkihTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZbornica zdravstvene in babiške nege Slovenije - Zveza strokovnih društev medicinskih sester, babic in zdravstvenih tehnikov Slovenije
