摘要
The usage of the indwelling urinary catheter, a common and essential procedure, is responsible for an overwhelming majority of nosocomial infections. Bacteria invade the lower urinary tract by ascending through or around the catheter. Morbidity associated with catheter-related urinary tract infection can be minimized by prudent decisions concerning catheter usage and good catheter care. While alternatives to the indwelling catheter are limited, much current research is focused on improving current catheter technology.
