摘要：
Background: Management of MRSA infection includes immediate isolation of the patient. Long periods of isolation are considered to be psychologically detrimental, though little information is available about the impact of isolation as an infection control procedure. The purpose of this study is to examine the psychological well-being of spinal cord injured patients who are isolated as a result of being MRSA positive.
