Abstract
We simultaneously investigated the prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and compliance with hand hygiene in the clinical wards of a French rehabilitation hospital. We found that the rate of hand hygiene compliance observed at the patient's bedside was a strong predictor of MRSA prevalence.
