MSSA and MRSA Screening in Patients Undergoing Elective TJA: the Benefits of Next-generation Sequencing

September 29, 2020 updated by: Rothman Institute Orthopaedics
The aims of this study were to evaluate the diagnostic performance of molecular and culture techniques in S. aureus screening using paired nasal and groin swabs, to determine, if any, discrepancy between the diagnostic techniques and to model the potential effect of different diagnostic techniques on S. aureus detection in orthopaedic patients
