Sağlık Çalışanlarında Nazal Metisiline Dirençli Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) Taşıyıcılığının AraştırılmasıTaşıyıcılığının Araştırılması

Bu çalışma, sağlık çalışanlarında nazal metisiline dirençli staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) taşıyıcılığının araştırılması amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırmada, bir eğitim araştırma hastanesinin farklı kliniklerinde çalışan sağlık çalışanlarından nazal sürüntü örnekleri alınmıştır (n=414). Sağlık çalışanlarından alınan örnekler %5 koyun kanlı agara azaltma yöntemi ile ekilmiş, kuşkulanılan kolonilerden gram boyama yapılmıştır. S. aureus suşlarını belirlemek için plazma koagülaz testi yapılmış, metisilin direnci agar tarama yöntemiyle belirlenmiştir. Metisilin direnci olan suşlarda kromozomal kaset tipleri (SCCmec gen kompleksi) polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu (PCR) yöntemleriyle araştırılmıştır. Ayrıca, doğrulamak amacıyla bu izolatlarda PCR yöntemiyle mecA geni bakılmıştır. Sürekli değişkenler ortalama±standart sapma ve kategorik değişkenler sayı ve yüzde olarak ifade edilmiştir. Kategorik değişkenler arasındaki farklılıkların incelenmesinde ise Ki kare analizi kullanılmıştır. Tüm analizlerde p

Investigation of Nasal Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) Carriage in Healthcare Workers

This study aims to investigate nasal methicillinresistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) carriage in healthcare workers. For the study, nasal swab samples were taken from healthcare workers working in various clinics of a training and research hospital (n=414). Samples from healthcare workers were inoculated on 5% sheep blood agar with a reduction method, and gram staining was performed on suspected colonies. A plasma coagulase test was performed to determine S. aureus strains, and methicillin resistance was determined by the agar screening method. Chromosomal cassette types (SCCmec gene complex) in methicillin-resistant strains were explored with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods. Besides, the mecA gene was analyzed by PCR method in these isolates for verification. Continuous variables were presented as mean±standard deviation and categorical variables as numbers and percentages. Chi-square analysis was used to examine the differences between categorical variables. In all analyzes, p
