Disseminated MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) refers to a widespread infection caused by a strain of Staphylococcus aureus that is resistant to methicillin and other beta-lactam antibiotics. It can occur in various forms, including skin infections, pneumonia, or bloodstream infections, and is often associated with community or healthcare settings. The bacteria can spread through skin-to-skin contact or contaminated surfaces, making it a significant public health concern. Treatment typically involves alternative antibiotics, and prevention strategies include proper hygiene and infection control measures.
