Abstract
Background. Recent data suggest that healthcare-associated invasive methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) infections are declining in the US (JAMA Intern Med 2013;173:1970). However, such infections are the minority of SA disease. Few studies have examined recent trends in epidemiology of SA clinical isolates that include susceptible, community-onset and non-bloodstream isolates. We performed multicenter SA surveillance in 2009, 2011 and 2013.
