Background:

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has been recognized as one of the major pathogens in both hospitals and community settings, MRSA is a concern for clinicians because it is often resistant to different classes of antibiotics.

Aim of the study:

Isolation of Staphylococcus aureus and detection of meticillin resistance by performing a susceptibility test.

Conclusion:

The prevalence of MRSA in our study was relatively high compared to previous studies. Therefore, continuous monitoring and accurate and rapid identification of MRSA in clinical specimens as well as full antimicrobial susceptibility profile must be confirmed to make a timely decision regarding effective antibiotic treatment.
