• W2531675437 abstract "Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Infections in the Eight Service Planning Areas of Los Angeles County by Ildiko Roxane Bocskay BSN, Grand Canyon University, 2012 AA, Los Angeles Pierce College, 2011 MBA, DeVry University, 2007 MSc, University of Debrecen, 2001 BSc, Karoly Eszterhazy Teacher Training College, 1998 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Public Health Walden University May 2016 Abstract Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become resistant to antibiotics. The purpose of this quantitative, retrospective cohort study was to examine the relationship between length of hospitalization and invasive MRSA infection rates among different racial and ethnic groups in the 8 service planning areas (SPAs) of Los Angeles County. Cane, O’Connor, and Michie’s theoretical domain framework was used. Secondary data from the Healthcare-Associated (HA) Infections Program of the California Department of Public Health were analyzed. For the first research question, a Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to assess the relationships between length of hospitalization and invasive HA-MRSA infection rates and counts. Length of hospital stay was not correlatedwith HA-MRSA infection rates; however, it was strongly and positively correlated with HA-MRSA infection counts. For the second research question, a one-way ANOVA was conducted on the infection count rate data, with SPA as the between-subjects factor. The results were statistically significant, indicating that HAMRSA infection counts varied among the 8 SPAs. The findings might help medical professionals better understand the risk factors associated with MRSA infections. In doing so, findings may relieve some of the burden on the U.S. health care system and improve the overall quality of life of the patients involved.Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become resistant to antibiotics.

I send a special thank you to my grandmother for teaching me how to study and enjoy learning. Mami, you helped me to fall in love with studying! Without your love, support, and encouragement, I would not have been able to pursue my dream of obtaining an advance degree in infectious disease epidemiology, my favorite field of study. You made me who I am today! Thank you very much for your love, prayers, guidance, and support! Szeretlek benneteket! I love you all! Acknowledgments I would like to say a special thank you to my wonderful chair, Dr. Frazier Beatty, for supporting me on this journey. My committee member, Dr. Diana Naser, always had positive reflections on my research. My university research reviewer, Dr. Scott McDoniel, always provided thoughtful feedback to improve the final study. My incredible dissertation editor, Barb Elwert, reviewed my writing. I would like to offer a warm thank you to my elementary school biology teacher, Toth Gyulane Ilike, who made me fall in love with biology. I extend warm thanks to my amazing professors at Karoly Eszterhazy Teacher Training College, Eger, Hungary, and the University of Debrecen, School of Natural Science, Debrecen, Hungary. A special thank you goes to Dr. Bela Lenkey, professor of microbiology, who made microbiology my favorite subject! In my thanks, I acknowledge my stepfather, Dr. Horvath Gusztav, pulmonologist, who helped me to prepare study notes to survive the oral defense of plant physiology exam. I also acknowledge all of my family members and friends in Hungary and in California. I send a special thank you to my best friends, Mata Csaba and Fernando Pena. I want to acknowledge my BSN students at Azusa Pacific University, Azusa and Mount Saint Mary’s University, Los Angeles. If you study to remember you will forget, but, if you study to understand, you will remember. –Anonymous You made me a successful teacher! I wish to acknowledge Joni Novosel, Dr. Jose Salazar, and Kenneth Archulet for helping me to start my career in a new country. I thank Elaina Ramirez, registered nurse, for giving me help when I needed it. Finally, I want to acknowledge in particular the wonderful family of Aurora Las Encinas Hospital, Pasadena.
