Brief summary: Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a leading cause of healthcare-associated infections worldwide. S. aureus colonizes several body sites, including the nose, throat, and perineum. Colonization by methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) increases the risk of infection by up to 27%, with infecting strains matching colonizing strains in up to 86% of cases. Decolonization, the goal of which is to decrease or eliminate bacterial load on the body, is an integral part of the strategies used to control and prevent the spread of MRSA. This approach involves eradication of MRSA carriage from the nose through the intranasal application of an antimicrobial agent and body washes with an antiseptic soap to eliminate bacteria from other body sites. The most commonly used agents for MRSA decolonization are intranasal mupirocin ointment applied to the anterior nares and chlorhexidine body wash. Postdischarge MRSA decolonization with chlorhexidine and mupirocin led to a 30% lower risk of MRSA infection. However, there are growing concerns about decolonization failures following the emergence of mupirocin and chlorhexidine resistance. Povidone iodine (PVP-I) is an alternative decolonization agent solutions and demonstrated rapid and superior bactericidal activity against MRSA in in vitro and ex vivo studies available reports. Finally, the induction of bacterial resistance or cross-resistance to antiseptics and antibiotics with PVP-I was not observed. The present protocol aims to use a "Decolonization kit" into MRSA patients to evaluate the efficacy of MRSA nasal decolonization with a topical PVP-I gel. This kit will allow a complete transient decolonization with povidone-iodine (PVP-I)-based products: nasal (gel), body (antiseptic soap) and oral (mouthwash).


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* MRSA patients with length of hospital stay \> 4 days
* Patient older than 18 years and informed about the study,
* Patients who provide their written informed consent,
* Patient affiliated with French social security system or beneficiary from such system.

Women must meet one of the following criteria at the time of inclusion:

* use adequate contraceptive measures as recommended by the CTFG (Recommendations related to contraception and pregnancy testing in clinical trials v1.1), and have a negative pregnancy test (urine test) prior to receiving the first dose of study drug;
* or be post-menopausal (over 50 years of age with amenorrhea for at least 12 months after discontinuation of all exogenous hormonal therapy)
* or (if under 50 years of age) have been amenorrheic for at least 12 months after discontinuation of exogenous hormonal therapy and with luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels corresponding to post-menopausal levels
* or have undergone irreversible surgical sterilization by hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy or bilateral salpingectomy (this operation must be documented).

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patient \< 18 years,
