Data for 479 patients were analyzed to assess the impact of methicillin resistance on the outcomes of patients with Staphylococcus aureus surgical site infections (SSIs). Patients infected with methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) had a greater 90-day mortality rate than did patients infected with methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA; adjusted odds ratio, 3.4; 95% confidence interval, 1.5-7.2). Patients infected with MRSA had a greater duration of hospitalization after infection (median additional days, 5; P<.001), although this was not significant on multivariate analysis (P=.11). Median hospital charges were $29,455 for control subjects, $52,791 for patients with MSSA SSI, and $92,363 for patients with MRSA SSI (P<.001 for all group comparisons). Patients with MRSA SSI had a 1.19-fold increase in hospital charges (P=.03) and had mean attributable excess charges of $13,901 per SSI compared with patients who had MSSA SSIs. Methicillin resistance is independently associated with increased mortality and hospital charges among patients with S. aureus SSI.
