Post-discharge decolonization of patients harboring methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) USA300 strains: secondary analysis of the CLEAR Trial

Abstract

The CLEAR Trial recently found that decolonization reduced infections and hospitalizations in MRSA carriers in the year following hospital discharge. In this secondary analysis, we explored whether decolonization had a similar benefit in the subgroup of trial participants who harbored USA300, using two different definitions for the USA300 strain-type.
