Abstract

Infections caused by resistant bacteria can strike anyone, the young and the old, the healthy and the chronically ill. Antibiotic resistance also is a serious problem for patients whose immune systems are compromised, such as people with HIV/AIDS and patients in critical care units. About 2 million people acquire bacterial infections in U.S. hospitals each year, and 90,000 die as a result. About 70 percent of those infections are resistant to at least one drug, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The total cost of antimicrobial resistance to U.S. society is nearly $5 billion annually. Treating resistant pathogens often requires more expensive drugs and extended hospital stays. Staphylococcus aureus (staph) is a common cause of hospital infections that can spread to the heart, bones, lungs, and bloodstream with fatal results. In 2002, 57.1 percent (an estimated 102,000 cases) of the staph bacteria found in U.S. hospitals were methicillin-resistant (MRSA), according to CDC. Staph infections (even those that are not drug-resistant) can be deadly and costly (1,2).
