Staphylococcus epidermidis is an aerobic, spherical, Gram-positive bacterium in the Staphylococcaceae family. 

In immunocompromised hospitalised patients, the bacterium may trigger catheter-associated sepsis and endocarditis respectively.

Staphylococcus epidermidis are extensively resistant to antibiotics, particularly to penicillin and methicillin (MRSE = Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis).

The main transmission path is direct or indirect contact with contaminated persons or objects.
