Popis: Background Oxacillin-susceptible mecA-positive Staphylococcus aureus (OS-MRSA) represents an important issue, as its oxacillin susceptibility has contributed to misidentification by conventional susceptibility tests and consequently potential therapeutic failure, but limited data on the current status of OS-MRSA infection in Chinese hospitals are available. Methods This multicenter study performed a battery of susceptibility tests and diagnostic tests for 956 S. aureus isolates from 10 hospitals, including automated susceptibility testing on VITEK 2, broth microdilution, disk diffusion, and detection of PBB2a, mecA gene and mecC gene. For all identified OS-MRSA, multi-locus sequence typing (MLST), together with spa typing, SCCmec typing and PVL detecting, was carried out. Results OS-MRSA, most of which were from pediatric inpatients, represented 1.8% (17/956) of total isolates. Of these 17 OS-MRSA, 10 were ST59, followed by ST965 (3/17), and 11 carried SCCmec type IV, while 5 carried SCCmec type V, but only one was Panton–Valentine leucocidin (PVL)-positive, also, 16 had one or two point mutations within mecA promoter. OS-MRSA had inducible oxacillin resistance and significantly lower MDR (Multi-Drug Resistant) rate. We observed that the VITEK 2 system exhibited some deficiency in OS-MRSA detection, whereas cefoxitin disk diffusion was shown to be a reliable and cost-saving alternative and should be supplemented in detecting S. aureus with borderline oxacillin susceptible MICs. Conclusion This study has characterized phenotypically and molecularly OS-MRSA in China, and provided insights into more effective management of OS-MRSA.
