Auguet OT, et al. - Researchers here examined if a healthcare-network analysis could shed light on transmission paths currently sustaining methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) levels in UK hospitals. Despite successful hospital infection prevention and control programs, this study identified continued ward-based MRSA transmission related to patient sharing between hospitals that underpins a significant proportion of current endemic transmission. Evidence suggested frequent ward-based transmission of MRSA brought about by frequent patient admissions to multiple hospitals. They suggested a simple intervention of communicating colonization status across hospitals for limiting in-ward transmission.
