[Survey of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus control measures in hospitals participating in the VINCat program].

CONCLUSIONS: This study provides information on the implementation of measures to prevent MRSA in hospitals participating in the VINCat program. Most of the centres have an MRSA protocol, however compliance with it should be improved, especially in areas such as active detection on admission in patients at risk, hand hygiene adherence, cleaning frequency and optimising the use of antibiotics.
