Abstract
To compare the culture sensitivities of MRSA detection, we collected 988 paired umbilical and nasal cultures from screened neonates. MRSA positivity rates were 79.1% from umbilicus and 41.9% from nares (P = .01). The umbilicus was a more useful culture site than the nares for surveillance of MRSA among neonates upon admission.
