We sought to describe the characteristics of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) in a children's hospital while demonstrating efficacy of electronic identification of CAUTIs. There were 25 CAUTIs identified over 24 months, with most (88%) occurring in the intensive care units (ICUs). The incidence of ICU CAUTIs decreased during the study period (P = .04). Concordance between electronic identification and validation by infection control staff was 83% and increased to 100% with correction of nursing documentation.
我们试图描述一家儿童医院中导管相关尿路感染（CAUTIs）的特征，同时展示CAUTIs电子识别的有效性。在24个月内共识别出25例CAUTIs，其中大多数（88%）发生在重症监护病房（ICU）。在研究期间，ICU中CAUTIs的发生率有所下降（P = 0.04）。电子识别与感染控制人员验证之间的一致性为83%，在纠正护理记录后提高到了100%。
