To investigate the causes of urinary tract infections occurring in patients with indwelling urinary catheter, and to find the preventive means against this condition.
The clinical data of 152 such cases admitted between March, 2000 and February, 2002 in our department were reviewed.
In this group of patients, 57 (37.5%) developed urinary infections due to the indwelling catheter, a rate significantly lower than that among previous cases (46.6%, P < 0.05) treated in our department.
Careful evaluation of the indications for indwelling urinary catheter, strict aseptic procedures and shortened indwelling time of the catheter may help prevent the occurrence of the infection.
探讨留置导尿管患者发生泌尿系统感染的原因,并寻找针对该情况的预防方法。
回顾了2000年3月至2002年2月间我科收治的152例此类患者的临床资料。
在这组患者中,57例(37.5%)因留置导尿管发生了泌尿系统感染,该发生率显著低于我科之前治疗的病例(46.6%,P<0.05)。
仔细评估留置导尿管的指征、严格执行无菌操作程序以及缩短导尿管留置时间可能有助于预防感染的发生。
