Abstract
This study showed that admission of patients with MRSA, the use of antibiotics and infection control practices contributed to the incidence of HA-MRSA. This suggests that efforts should be focused on high compliance with hand disinfection. These results also raise concerns about the use of gloves when caring for patients with MRSA.
