Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| MRSA colonization recurrence rate. After participants have been confirmed as MRSA negative on Day 1, recurrence is defined as the presence of greater than 24 CFUs in a selective growth media MRSA test (such as CHROMagarâ?¢ MRSA) and in any one of the four sites sampled at each time point (hand, throat, axilla, and nares).Timepoint: Day 0, Day 1, week 4, and week 8 | — |
