  • Title: An Evidence-Based Approach To the Prevention of Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections.
    Author: Carter NM, Reitneier L, Goodloe LR.
    Journal: Urol Nurs; 2014; 34(5):238-45. PubMed ID: 26298933.
    Abstract:
    This article describes a bundle of interventions that effectively reduced the incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infections on the Acute Care Medicine' Unit, a general medicine/telemetry unit. A series of evidence-based interventions were implemented in October 2011, and since the implementation of these interventions, the 28-bed unit has seen a significant reduction in catheter-associated urinary tract infections.
