This project was initiated in a large pediatric intensive care unit to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs). Implementing removal of diapers and a urine collection device that prevented urine backflow in March 2021 decreased the rate from 3.3 to 0.9 CAUTIs/1000 catheter-days. These interventions could augment CAUTI prevention strategies.
该项目在一家大型儿科重症监护病房启动,旨在减少导尿管相关尿路感染(CAUTIs)。2021年3月实施去除尿布和采用防止尿液回流的尿液收集装置后,CAUTIs发生率从每1000导尿管日3.3例降至0.9例。这些干预措施可加强CAUTI预防策略。
