Catheter‑ associated‑ urinary tract infections (CA‑ UTIs) account for over 80% of all intensive care patients treated with an indwelling urinary tract catheter during their hospital stay. [1‑ 3] CA‑ UTIs occurs at a rate of 3%– 10% per day of catheterization and the incidence approaches 100% within the 30 hospital days. CA‑ UTIs in critically ill patients can lead to bacteremia which is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity among hospitalized patients and it can be avoided using appropriate preventive measures. [4‑ 7] Sterile catheter insertion, maintenance of a closed drainage system, and aseptic technique for urine collection must be used. Other risks include prolonged catheterization and improper catheter insertion, as well as catheter care and prevention of backflow. Health‑ care providers should attempt to eliminate these risk factors associated with CA‑ UTIs...
