OBJECTIVES • DESCRIBE THE EPIDEMIOLOGY DEFINING COMMUNITY – BASED MRSA INFECTION • UNDERSTAND LABORATORY/MICROBIOLOGY STUDIES AND MRSA RESISTANCE AND TRENDS • RECOGNIZE TYPICAL AND ATYPICAL CLINICAL FEATURES OF COMMUNITY MRSA INFECTIONS IN CHILDREN • MAKE APPROPRIATE EMPIRIC AND DEFINITIVE MANAGEMENT DECISIONS OF MINOR AND SERIOUS MRSA INFECTIONS INCLUDING AN AWARENESS OF APPROPRIATE OLD AND NEW ANTIMICROBIALS • COUNSEL/ADDRESS FAMILIES ABOUT RECURRENT MRSA INFECTIONS
