Guide for use: | Supports clinical management by identifying a range of antibiotics that can be used to treat a patient infected with Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Required for MRSA isolates only, where the Staphylococcus aureus is resistant to methicillin. CODE 1 Yes Record if the MRSA isolate is susceptible to the antibiotic. CODE 2 No Record if the MRSA isolate is not susceptible (i.e. resistant) to the antibiotic. Intermediate level resistance is reported as 2 (resistant). Must be used in conjunction with the metadata item Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolate—antibiotic susceptibility, text [X(39)] to indicate which antibiotic is tested. For example, if the MRSA isolate is resistant to trimethoprim, the text recorded for Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolate—antibiotic susceptibility, text [X(39)] would be trimethoprim, and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolate—antibiotic susceptibility indicator, yes/no code N would be 2 (resistant). |
