Table 2.

Discordance assessment between each test method, where the value listed is the p value for a statistical test where the 2 test methods have an equal prevalence.

Traditional MSAox EB with MSAox
MSAox 0.208
EB with MSAox 0.223 0.003*
EB with traditional 0.322 0.015* 0.547

EB with MSAox = enrichment broth with mannitol salt agar with 2 µg/mL of oxacillin; EB with traditional = EB with routine diagnostic method; MSAox = mannitol salt agar with 2 µg/mL of oxacillin.
