| Popis: | Background/purpose: This study was intended to investigate the impact of implementation of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CA-UTI) bundle care on the incidence of CA-UTI in high-risk units. Methods: Thirteen high-risk units, including medical (n = 5), surgical (n = 3), cardiac intensive care units (n = 2), respiratory care centers (n = 2), and respiratory care ward (n = 1) were included in this quality-improvement project. This study was divided into pre-intervention phase (from January 1 to July 31) and post-intervention phase (from August 1 to October 31) in 2013. Results: The incidence of CA-UTI decreased by 22.7%, from 3.86 to 2.98 per 1000 catheter-days (95% confidence interval, 0.65–0.82; p |
