S. aureus (n = 92)	Resistance pattern, n (%)
	R0	R1	R2	R3	R4	R5	R ≥ 6	MDR (≥3)
MSSA (n = 66)	10 (15.2)	50 (75.8)	4 (6.1)	1 (1.5)	0	1 (1.5)	0	2 (3%)
MRSA (n = 26)	0	0	8 (30.8)	2 (7.7)	1 (3.8)	2 (7.7)	13 (50)	18 (69.2)

Note. R0, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, sensitive to all, resistance to one, two, three, four, five, and greater than six antibiotics tested, respectively; MDR (≥3): multidrug resistance (for greater than or equal to three antibiotics). MSSA: methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus; MRSA: methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
