  • To determine the prevalence and incidence of MRSA colonization of the nares, throat, perirectal, axilla, and groin areas among HIV infected patients and to study changes in the colonization rates over time. [ Time Frame: Every 6 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To evaluate the change in CD4 counts and HIV viral loads during the time of a MRSA or soft tissue infection. [ Time Frame: At time of infection ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Prospective Study of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) Among HIV-Infected Persons
Prospective Study on the Incidence, Predictors, and Characteristics of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Infections and a Randomized, Double-Blind Study on Decolonization Procedures for Prevention of MRSA Infections Among HIV-Infected Persons

This study will prospectively evaluate the prevalence and incidence (over a two year period) of MRSA colonization and infection among HIV-infected military beneficiaries to determine predictors for the development of MRSA colonization and infection. This study will also investigate the utility of decolonization procedures for clearance of MRSA carriage and prevention of MRSA infections. Finally, the molecular characteristics and the antimicrobial sensitivities of isolates in this population will be determined.
