MRSA, also known as methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus, is an infection caused by a bacteria that is resistant to a wide variety of medications. As a result, the infection is difficult to eradicate from the body. Similar to the situation with multi-drug resistance Mycobacterium TB, this staphylococcus is emerging as a new anti-biotic resistant bacteria strain. Because humans are prone to bacterial infections, an illness as severe as MRSA can be clinically hazardous if it is not treated in the appropriate manner. Recent discussions about the diagnosis and management of MRSA include both traditional approaches that rely on taking samples (body fluids) from the patient and performing lab cultures, as well as more sophisticated approaches like PCR detection of the pathogen, which provides results in a short period of time. These cutting-edge diagnostic techniques are incredibly quick and precise, and they contribute to a more accurate diagnosis of the illness.
