INTRODUCTION: In recent years, there has been the emergence of multidrug-resistant strains from patients seen in primary lesions with venous ulcers. OBJECTIVES: To determine the frequency and susceptibility profile of Staphylococcus sp.; verify the prevalence of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of isolates; detect MLSB resistance in Staphylococcus sp. isolated from venous ulcers; describe the frequency of clinical signs and symptoms indicative of infection of venous ulcers (2005); identify the clinical stage of infection, to determine the relationship between clinical signs and symptoms of infection and culture results found for Staphylococcus sp. METHODS: Were evaluated 69 people with 98 ulcers in the period of October/09 to October/2010. The isolates resistant to cefoxitin and/or oxacillin (disk diffusion) were subjected to confirmatory test for detection of MIC, using tapes of oxacillin (E-test ®). The phenotypic detection of the inducible resistance to the MLSB group was performed by the D-test. The clinical signs and symptoms were investigated in accordance with criteria established by the document Identifying criteria for wound infection (EWMA, 2005). Were used the software Statistics Package for Social Sciences for Windows ® (SPSS 17.0) for data processing. For association analysis were used the Chi-square or Fisher's exact tests, adopting a significance level of 5% (α = 0.05). Legal ethical aspects have been respected. RESULTS: The prevalence of S. aureus was 83% and 15% of CoNS. Were identified 28% of MRSA and 47% MRCoNS. Among S. aureus, 69.6% were resistant to erythromycin, 69.6% to clindamycin, 69.6% to gentamicin and 100% to ciprofloxacin. 74% of MRSA showed high level resistance to oxacillin, MIC ≥ 256 μg/mL, and in 65.2% predominated MLSBc constitutive resistance. Of the two MRSA isolates with sensibility to clindamycin, just one was positive for D-test. Signs and symptoms of infection more frequent were: discoloration of the wound and increase the volume of exudate. The stage III of infection was identified in 70 (71.4%) ulcers. An association among friable granulation tissue and cultures positive for Staphylococcus sp. (P = 0.004) and increase the local temperature of the skin and multiresistant Staphylococcus (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: Staphylococcus sp. multidrug-resistant were isolates of venous ulcers in people treated in primary care. The results confirm that the MRSA isolates, beyond resistance to beta-lactams, also exhibit cross-resistance to other antimicrobials such as clindamycin, erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, and gentamicin. Remain a challenge to find indicators of infection for venous ulcers
