Sampling Method
Study Population
Children's is the largest pediatric clinical care provider in the country. Currently, across the three hospitals (Hughes Spalding, Egleston, and Scottish Rite), there are 561 licensed beds. In 2013, CHOA managed more than 860,849 patient visits, with over 218,231 Emergency Department visits.
Enrolled patients will be tested for colonization by CA-MRSA and CA-MSSA by standard swabbing of specified sites (nares, axilla, oropharyngeal, and perirectal areas). A culture swab will also be taken of an enrolled patient's wound infection (skin and soft tissue infection).
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Diagnosis of skin and soft tissue infections (abscesses and cellulitis)
- Patient aged >6 months and <21 years
Exclusion Criteria:
- Currently on antibiotics
- Unimmunized patients
- Pertinent co-morbid conditions (immune deficiency, underlying cardiac, skin, GI disorder)

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of children with MRSA and MSSA carriage
Time Frame: 1 year
|
We are measuring this by swabbing 5 locations on the body of each study participant.
We are swabbing the anterior nares (nostrils), under both axilla (armpits), oropharyngeal area (mouth), skin around the perirectal area, and the actual abscess wound.

Number of children with MRSA and MSSA skin and soft tissue infections
Time Frame: 1 year
|
We are measuring this by collecting wound cultures from all children who present with skin and soft issue infections.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of strains of MRSA and MSSA with unique genomic sequences
Time Frame: 1 year
|
We are conducting genomic sequences.
We want to understand the relationship between the different strains of MRSA and MSSA.
|
1 year
|
Percent relatedness between MRSA and MSSA protein profiles
Time Frame: 1 year
|
Few studies have looked at the relationship between molecular characterization and treatment outcomes of children who present for skin and soft tissue infections.
We will be using Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF).
