Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) screening guidelines for hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients are not well defined. Retrospective assessment of standardized pretransplantation MRSA screening in a large single-center cohort of HCT recipients demonstrated that colonization was uncommon, and that no colonized patients developed posttransplantation invasive complications.
