Epidemiological Characteristics of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates from Children with Eczematous Atopic Dermatitis Lesions

Abstract: In this study, we investigated the rate of colonization of skin of children with atopic dermatitis (AD) by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and characterized the isolates. Active skin lesions in pediatric AD patients were cultured with Rodac Staph (Komed, Korea). S. aureus isolates were examined for drug susceptibilities, analyzed for the eta, etb, tst, and pvl genes, and typed using agr polymorphism, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of SmaI-restricted chromosomal DNA, and staphylococcal cass… Show more

“…A previous report suggested that the detection rate of MRSA from the skin of AD patients was 43.8% in AD inpatients and 29.4% in AD outpatients [34]. Moreover, there has been a report as well that the detection rate of MRSA from pediatric AD outpatients was 18.3% [35]. In this study of AD outpatients, the rate of detection of MRSA was 2.3% (6/261).…”

“…4 Kolonisasi MRSA pada individu yang sehat dilaporkan sebanyak 5,1% di Korea Selatan, 4,3% di Jepang, dan 1,9% di Taiwan. 5 Galur MRSA saat ini tidak hanya resisten terhadap metisilin, melainkan memiliki sifat multiresisten terhadap berbagai antibiotik lain yang umum digunakan seperti aminoglikosida, makrolid, kloramfenikol, dan fluorokuinolon, namun istilah MRSA masih digunakan. 4 Seiring ditemukan CA-MRSA di masyarakat, dapat ditemukan pada lesi kulit penderita DA, 5 terutama penderita DA dengan derajat sedang sampai berat.…”
