The recommendations of the German Robert Koch Institute, concerning microbiological screening of newly admitted hospital patients for MRSA colonization, referred to specific risk groups such as patients admitted from long-term care facilities. New literature data indicate that a general MRSA screening policy of all incoming patients may be a cost-effective measure in intensive care units of large tertiary care hospitals.
