| Abstract: | Objective: The high prevalence of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) within the northern Mediterranean countries of Europe has already been documented. However, the concomitant situation in centres within the southern and eastern countries of the region was previously unknown. The Antibiotic Resistance Surveillance and Control in the Mediterranean Region (ARMed) project [www.slh.gov.mt/armed] provided a first time opportunity for a longitudinal multi-year study of trends of antimicrobial resistance amongst this species within these countries. |
