We will review clinical trials evidence for patients with bacteraemia with Staphylococcus aureus. The specific questions to be addressed are:

• For bacteraemia due to methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA), what is the most effective antibiotic?

• For bacteraemia due to methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), what is the most effective antibiotic?

• For uncomplicated bacteraemia due to S. aureus, what is the appropriate duration of therapy?
