MRSA isolates are analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis PFGE. MRSA infection was significantly associated with a low composite hygiene score. PFGE analysis showed that isolates were indistinguishable and associated with community-onset MRSA infections in other US prisons. Improving hygiene practices and environmental conditions may help prevent and interrupt future MRSA outbreaks in prison settings.
