Park HJ et al. – While having worse prognostic factors compared with glycopeptide–based therapy, linezolid–based salvage therapy revealed a trend toward better outcomes than the comparator. The data suggest that linezolid–based salvage therapy would be considered in patients with persistent MRSA–B despite the use of glycopeptides therapy.
