Can MRSA pass the placenta barrier?

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) can potentially pass through the placenta, but it is relatively uncommon. While MRSA primarily affects the skin and soft tissues, if a maternal infection occurs, there is a possibility of vertical transmission to the fetus, which can lead to complications. However, the risk of serious consequences for the fetus is generally low, and most cases of MRSA infections in pregnant women do not result in transmission. Proper management and treatment of maternal infections are crucial to minimize any potential risks.
