Background: Staphylococcus aureusis the major pathogen of human. Communityacquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(CA-MRSA) is one strain of S. aureus, increasingly recognized as a cause of skin and soft tissue infection. The infection can be fatal. Colonization is an important factor for infection. There are some risk factors for the colonization of S. aureusand CA-MRSA. Male to female transgender is one of the population group who have risk for colonization. Studies of risk factors for S. aureusand CA-MRSAcolonization have not been done in Indonesia. Objectives: To determine the association between some risk factors and the colonization of S. aureusand CA-MRSA. Methods: Subjects in this cross-sectional study were male to female transgenderin Yogyakarta. Sample was determined by consecutive sampling..Staphylococcus aureusand CA-MRSA confirmed by positive culture of S. aureus on blood agar media and continue with MRSA identification. The risk factors were assesed with questionnaires. Statistical analysis was performed with chi-square test. Results: Study sample consisted of 65male to female transgender, the highest distribution in the range of 40-49 years old. The prevalence of S. aureuscolonization was 15,4%. There is no evidence of CA-MRSA. Chi-square test showed no significant association between risk factors and colonization of S. aureus. Conclusion: The prevalence of S. aureuscolonization was 15,4% and no evidence ofCA- MRSA. There was no association between risk factors and colonization of S. aureus on male to female trasngender in Yogyakarta.
