Prevalence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL) producing bacteria associated with Surgical Site Infections (SSI) in a Military and Civilian Hospital in Ghana (2017–Present)
Investigating the prevalence of MRSA and ESBL-producing bacteria in surgical site infections to guide antimicrobial stewardship.
Status:
Ongoing
Objective
This study investigates the prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and ESBL-producing bacteria in patients with surgical site infections. Data generated from this study informs treatment options and provides critical guidance to improve antimicrobial stewardship.
