RESUMO
Se realizó un estudio prospectivo de 47 cepas de estafilococo procedentes de muestras biológicas del Laboratorio de Microbiología del Hospital Provincial Docente Clinicoquirúrgico Saturnino Lora Torres de Santiago de Cuba, desde febrero hasta abril de 2017, con vistas a determinar la frecuencia de estafilococos resistentes a la meticilina. En la serie, el mayor número de los aislamientos correspondió a las muestras de secreciones y catéter; asimismo, los servicios con mayores aislamientos notificados fueron Ortopedia y Cirugía. Se observó una frecuencia elevada de cepas de Staphylococcus aureus y estafilococo coagulasa negativa, resistentes a meticilina
A prospective study of 47 staphylococcus stumps coming from biological samples of the Microbiology Laboratory in Saturnino Lora Torres Teaching Clinical Surgical Provincial Hospital was carried out in Santiago de Cuba, from February to April, 2017, aimed at determining the frequency of staphylococcus resistant to methicillin. In the series, the highest number of isolations corresponded to the samples of secretions and catheter; also, the services with more notified isolations were Orthopedics and Surgery. A high frequency of Staphylococcus aureus stumps and negative coagulase staphylococcus resistant to methicillin was observed

Objective To establish and evaluate the method for detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) by the cefoxitin disk diffusion test.Methods The disks with 30 microgramme of cefoxitin and oxacillin recommended by NCCLS were used for the detection of MRSA with PCR by using mecA as the reference.The MIC of cefoxitin to Staphylococcus aureus was also determined.Results Of the 145 test isolates of Staphylococcus aureus,83 isolates showed the mecA-positive by PCR,62 isolates were negative.In cefoxitin disk diffusion tests,82 isolates showed MRSA-positive and 63 isolates were negative.The sensitivity was 98.8% and the specificity was 100%.In oxacillin diffusion tests,the sensitivity was 95.2% and the specificity was 96.8%.Conclusions For the detection of MRSA,the cefoxitin disk diffusion test was consistent with the results by PCR for mecA.The cefoxitin disk diffusion test is easy to be performed and can be used in routine diagnostic works.
RESUMO
Objective In order to choose a suitable method in detecting MRS,the detection rate,sensitivity and specificity of Vitek-32 auto microbacteria indentity system,oxacillin agar dilution test,cefoxitin disk diffusion test and PCR for mecA gene are evaluated.Methods MRSA and MRCNS are detected by the four methods metioned above in 175 staphylococci,then comparing the postive detection rate by Chi-square test and calculating sensitivity and specificity of the other three methods based on PCR for meeA gene as a gold standard.Results The detection rate of four methods have no difference in detecting MRSA,but the detection rate of Vitek-32 auto microbacteria indentity system and oxacillin agar dilution test is better than that of PCR for mecA gene in detecting MRCNS.Sensitivity and specificity of Vitek-32 auto microbacteria indentity system,oxacillin agar dilution test and cefoxitin disk diffusion test in detecting MRSA are 100%、96.3%、96.3% and 88.2%、100%、100% respectively,the sensitivity of detecting MRCNS are all 100%,the specificity of detecting MRCNS are 50%、46.1% and 65.4% respectively.Conclusions Both mecA gene and the determination for MIC of Oxacillin should be considered in final decision for MRS,Furthermore.the MRS mediated by mecA gene and the MRS mediated by non-mecA gene should be treated differentially.
