Foley Catheter with Peri-Urethral Antimicrobial Irrigation for the Prevention of Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infections – Assessment in an In Vitro Model
BACKGROUND: Catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) are a significant medical issue with substantial morbidities and costs. CAUTIs are primarily caused by colonization of the external surface of Foley catheters which serve as conduits for colonizing microbes to access the bladder. In o...
