Prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profile of Staphylococcus aureus in inherited epidermolysis bullosa: a cross‐sectional multicenter study in Brazil

The high frequency of MRSA colonizing patients with EB is alarming considering its association with life-threatening complications and poorer outcomes. EB patients are at increased risk of colonization and infection by Staphylococcus aureus and CA-MRSA. Getting to know S. aureus carriage sites and its antimicrobial susceptibility profile is key when planning new individualized and more effective prophylactic and therapeutic measures.
