“…Several populationbased studies on S. aureus infections exist; however, these studies focused on hospital-based populations (3)(4)(5)(6), MRSA infection (7-9), non-US populations (10)(11)(12), or only estimated the impact of invasive S. aureus disease (10,(13)(14)(15). Additionally, population-level changes in incidence, particularly before and after USA300 MRSA emerged, are largely unknown.…”

Trends in Staphylococcus aureus infections are not well described. To calculate incidence in overall S. aureus infection and invasive and noninvasive infections according to methicillin susceptibility and location, we conducted a 10-year population-based retrospective cohort study (1999)(2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008) using patient-level data in the Veterans Affairs Maryland Health Care System. We found 3,674 S. aureus infections: 2,816 (77%) were noninvasive; 2,256 (61%) were methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA); 2,517 (69%) were community onset, and 1,157 (31%) were hospital onset. Sixty-one percent of noninvasive infections were skin and soft tissue infections; 1,112 (65%) of these were MRSA. Ten-year averaged incidence per 100,000 veterans was 749 (± 132 SD,

Abstract: Although the overall influence of S. aureus bacteremia has not significantly changed, MRSA has emerged as an important etiology in our region.
