There is a section on MRSA clearance screening in,
Clinical Excellence Commission, 2017, Infection prevention and control practice handbook. Principles for NSW public health organisations. Clinical Excellence Commission, Sydney, Australia.7.3.8 MRSA clearance screening
Clearance screening for MRSA may be considered if all of the following criteria have been met:
The patient has not used any antibiotics or antiseptics specific to the MRO in last three months;
It has been at least six months since the patient has returned a positive MRO specimen; and
Patient is no longer receiving care in an extreme risk clinical area (See Table 9, Specific MRO transmission risks and also Section 3.2.1, Hospital environments).
For patients in general wards, outpatients and community settings, clearance of a MRO is when a patient returns at least two negative swabs sets, collected from the same body sites, on the same day at different times or on separate days (i.e. the two swabs sets are separated by time). Only the ICP or ICP designated HCW is to update any infection control alerts in eMR (see Section 7.5).
Additional practice points to consider:
For MRSA, clearance can be determined if > 6 months after the last positive MRO culture.
Subsequent relapse of MRSA carriage after initial clearance may occur at a later time, either due to re-acquisition or resurgence of carriage to a detectable level.
Clearance screening may be performed after re-admission or as an outpatient provided that the patient has not recently used either an antiseptic body wash or antibiotic that is active against MRSA.
The presence of any indwelling device or non-intact skin is no longer a contraindication for clearance screening. However, clearance screening should include specimens from these sites if required.
For CPE, VRE and ESBL colonised patients, there is insufficient published scientific evidence to develop a state-wide clearance protocol. A local management plan is suggested to be developed with IPC and ID teams.

Hi Everyone,
I was just wandering how many swabs do you need to collect for MRSA clearance.
Currently we are doing 2 negative MRSA results.Regards,

Our hospital has recently been looking into the way our toilets are cleaned throughout our hospital.
Do any of you use disposable toilet bowl brushes? If not, what cleaning process do you have for the brushes from room to room?
Any information appreciated.
