ABSTRACT
Objective: To characterize the isolations of
Staphylococcus aureus recuperated from the purulent
samples of patients with infections associatedwithsanitary and community.
Method: Transverse descriptive study conducted at “Fructuoso Rodríguez” Orthopedic Hospital from
January to May 2014. 242 purulent samples were analyzed, 134 obtained from surgical wounds
infected of hospitalized patients and 108 from skin infections and soft parts of the community cases.
The samples process was developed through microbiological conventional methods; antimicrobial
susceptibility was determined in those where
S. aureus was recuperated by Bauer-Kirby and E-test
methods for the vancomycin.
Results: S. aureus was identified in 41,0 y 50,9% of the hospital and communitarian isolations
respectively ; 52,7% of those performed in the hospital was obtained from infected surgical wounds
and 94,6% from infections of the skin and soft parts.
S. aureus proved resistance to methicillin (SARM)
in 50,9 and 25,5% in the isolations worked out in hospital and in the community respectively. Strains
resistant to vancomycin were not observed.
Conclusions: S. aureus predominates in the purulent samples obtained (hospital and community)
according to the international and national literature consulted. Cotrimoxazol showed a higher
percentage of resistance in the community, what presumesits irrational use in the community as a
possible cause of this phenomenon being concerned.
