くつ王レディオ糖尿病性足感染症とMRSA：鼻腔スクリーニングで「ない」を知る！抗菌薬適正使用の新常識 Antimicrobial Agents and ChemotherapyUtility of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Nares Screening for Patients with a Diabetic Foot InfectionCitationAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2020; 64(4): e02213-19概要米国退役軍人医療システムにおいて、2007〜2018年の糖尿病足感染症患者5,403名（8,163エピソード）を対象に、MRSA鼻腔スクリーニングの陰性的中率（NPV）と、感染部位からの培養結果との関連を後ろ向きに検討した。対象は全例で入院時または転棟時に鼻腔スワブが採取され、7日以内に足または足趾からの臨床培養が行われた。結果MRSA検出率は7.5％、MSSAは24.8％で最も多く、次いでEnterococcus（14.7％）が多かった。MRSA鼻腔スクリーニングの全体NPVは89.6％（深部培養89.2％、表層培養90.3％、足由来培養89.7％、足趾由来培養89.4％）。地域別や2007〜2012年と2013〜2018年での差はほぼなし（いずれも約90％前後）。陽性的中率（PPV）は43〜53％と低く、鼻腔保有が必ずしも局所感染を意味しない。考察鼻腔MRSA非保有であれば、その後の足部培養でMRSAが検出される可能性は約10％以下であり、特に重症でない患者では経験的な抗MRSA薬投与の中止や回避に利用できる可能性がある。抗MRSA薬の過剰使用による腎毒性や耐性菌リスク低減にもつながる。結論糖尿病足感染症において、直近の鼻腔MRSAスクリーニング陰性結果は、MRSA感染の除外に高いNPVを示し、抗菌薬適正使用（特にバンコマイシン回避）のための有用な指標となる。

Hospital Medicine UnpluggedOsteomyelitis in the Hospitalized Patient: Master the MRSA, MRI, and Mandatory Biopsy Rules for HospitalistsIn this episode of Hospital Medicine Unplugged, we sprint through osteomyelitis—spot early, culture smart, hit bugs hard, cut dead bone, mobilize the team.
We open with the do-firsts: risk scan (diabetes, PAD, trauma/surgery, prosthetics, IVDU, MRSA exposure), focused exam for focal bony pain, warmth, swelling, sinus tracts, and labs (ESR/CRP↑ > WBC). Get blood cultures if febrile or vertebral disease. MRI is your early, high-sensitivity imaging to map abscesses and necrotic bone. Definitive diagnosis = bone biopsy for microbiology + histopathology—avoid swabs/sinus cultures.

We open with the right patients: nonpurulent, warm, tender, spreading erythema—and the red flags for a bed (systemic toxicity, rapid progression, immunocompromise, failed outpatient therapy, hand/face, or NSTI concern). Use bedside ultrasound to unmask abscess; skip routine blood cultures unless severe, immunocompromised, or unusual exposure. Mark borders and reassess at 24–48 hours.

Supplements Podcast By RevGeneticsSpermidine vs MRSA - Spermidine Boosts Immunity Against MRSA Infections - Podcast 021
In this podcast, researchers explore the link between gut health and fighting off MRSA infections.
They found that antibiotics disrupting gut bacteria made mice more susceptible to severe MRSA infections. However, fecal transplants from healthy mice improved infections drastically. The key molecule identified was spermidine, produced by gut bacteria. Mice with higher spermidine levels showed improved survival rates and reduced infection severity when infected with MRSA.
Spermidine seemed to boost the immune system's response to the infection. This research highlights the importance of gut health in combating antibiotic-resistant superbugs like MRSA.

The Wound CentreMRSA: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureusA major culprit in cross-infection in all types of healthcare facilities is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). It is endemic in tertiary referral hospitals in the developed world. The first Australian isolation was made at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPAH) in Sydney, Australia, in 1965. So what is MRSA and how can we stop the spread of this potentially deadly nosocomial (hospital acquired) pathogen that has become resistant to so many antibiotics? It is a problem particularly for susceptible patients: neonates, immune suppressed and those undergoing surgical procedures. It can cause infection in wounds, urinary tract, blood and l...

consilium - der Pädiatrie-Podcast#21 „MRSA“ mit Dr. Till Dresbach
Hören Sie in dieser Weihnachts-Folge, wie Dr. Enninger und sein Gast Dr. Dresbach das wenig festliche Thema MRSA besprechen. Immer sollte man in Klinik und Praxis bei rezidivierenden Abszessen oder schlecht heilenden Wunden an MRSA (Methicillin-resistenter Staphylococcus aureus) denken. Häufig sind Nachweise aber Zufallsbefunde und selten lässt sich klären, woher der Keim letztlich stammt – auch trotz einer in jedem Fall durchzuführenden sorgfältigen Umfeldanamnese. Bei unkomplizierten Fällen mit Patienten, die weder multimorbide noch schwerstkrank sind, lässt sich die Dekolonisation zu Hause durchführen. Eine weitere weihnachtsfrohe Botschaft: „multiresistent“ bedeutet selten „nicht behandelbar“.

This Podcast Will Kill YouEp 15 MRSA: Make Resistance Susceptible AgainWe've gotten pretty graphic on this podcast before, but this episode takes it to a whole new level. The omnipresent Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium that wears many faces. Often that face is harmless, but Staph has the power to invade and infect nearly every organ of the body, leaving destruction (and a lot of pus) in its wake. While Staphylococcus aureus has been wreaking havoc on humans since well before the discovery of antibiotics, Methicillin-resistant Staph aureus (MRSA) has risen to terrifying prominence as resistance becomes the new norm. If any disease could make you run out (or...

Author: Monina Klevens, DDS, MPH
Article: "Invasive Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Infections in the United States"
Summary Points:
The magnitude of MRSA infection is significant, demonstrating that it is a major health care and public health issue.
The majority of invasive MRSA infections are healthcare-associated; hospitals and other health care facilities should make MRSA prevention a priority.
MRSA skin infections are common in the community and rarely become life threatening or invasive.

Patients colonised or infected with MRSA provide a reservoir within hospitals, although infection prevention and control measures minimise the risk of transmission.
Although there is broad agreement on the control measures required for patients colonised or infected with MRSA, there is considerable controversy over who, when and how to screen for the bacteria.
John Coia, a consultant microbiologist at Glasgow Royal Infirmary, discusses when screening may be appropriate, how it should be carried out, and the best strategy for decolonisation.
