Abstract
BACKGROUND Identify urinary catheter (UC)-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) incidence and risk factors (RF) in 235 ICUs in 8 Asian countries: India, Malaysia, Mongolia, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam. METHODS From January 1, 2014, to February 12, 2022, we conducted a prospective cohort study. To estimate CAUTI incidence, the number of UC days was the denominator, and CAUTI was the numerator. To estimate CAUTI RFs, we analyzed 11 variables using multiple logistic regression. RESULTS 84,920 patients hospitalized for 499,272 patient days acquired 869 CAUTIs. The pooled CAUTI rate per 1,000 UC-days was 3.08; for those using suprapubic-catheters (4.11); indwelling-catheters (2.65); trauma-ICU (10.55), neurologic-ICU (7.17), neurosurgical-ICU (5.28); in lower-middle-income countries (3.05); in upper-middle-income countries (1.71); at public-hospitals (5.98), at private-hospitals (3.09), at teaching-hospitals (2.04). The following variables were identified as CAUTI RFs: Age (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.01; 95% CI = 1.01-1.02; P < .0001); female sex (aOR = 1.39; 95% CI = 1.21-1.59; P < .0001); using suprapubic-catheter (aOR = 4.72; 95% CI = 1.69-13.21; P < .0001); length of stay before CAUTI acquisition (aOR = 1.04; 95% CI = 1.04-1.05; P < .0001); UC and device utilization-ratio (aOR = 1.07; 95% CI = 1.01-1.13; P = .02); hospitalized at trauma-ICU (aOR = 14.12; 95% CI = 4.68-42.67; P < .0001), neurologic-ICU (aOR = 14.13; 95% CI = 6.63-30.11; P < .0001), neurosurgical-ICU (aOR = 13.79; 95% CI = 6.88-27.64; P < .0001); public-facilities (aOR = 3.23; 95% CI = 2.34-4.46; P < .0001). DISCUSSION CAUTI rate and risk are higher for older patients, women, hospitalized at trauma-ICU, neurologic-ICU, neurosurgical-ICU, and public facilities. All of them are unlikely to change. CONCLUSIONS It is suggested to focus on reducing the length of stay and the Urinary catheter device utilization ratio, avoiding suprapubic catheters, and implementing evidence-based CAUTI prevention recommendations.

Garcell HG, Al-Ajmi J, Arias AV, Abraham JC, Garmendia AMF, Hernandez TMF. Catheter-associated urinary tract infection and urinary catheter utilization ratio over 9 years, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the incidence of infection in medical and surgical wards in a single facility in Western Qatar. Qatar Med J 2023; 2023:14. [PMID: 37521093 PMCID: PMC10373895 DOI: 10.5339/qmj.2023.14] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 04/02/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is a frequently reported healthcare-associated infection in critical and non-critical patients. Limited data are available about CAUTI incidence in non-critical patients. We aim to describe the incidence of CAUTI over 9 years and evaluate the impact of the pandemic on the incidence in non-critical acute care patients. METHODS A retrospective observational study of CAUTI in medical-surgical and maternity wards was carried out at a public hospital in the west of the State of Qatar. Data collected included the annual CAUTI incidence (per 1,000 device days), urinary catheter utilization ratio (UC-UR), etiology, and antimicrobial resistance. RESULTS 115,238 patient days and 6,681 urinary catheters (UC) days were recorded over the study period, and 9 and 4 CAUTI were confirmed in medical-surgical and maternity wards, respectively. The infection rate was 1.9 per 1,000 UC days, and the UC-UR was 0.06. The CAUTI rate was higher in medical-surgical wards over the COVID-19 period (2.4 × 1,000 UC days) in comparison with the non-COVID-19 period (1.7 × 1,000 UC days) (RR 1.46; 1.12-1.80). However, in the maternity ward, the result was 0 and 2.5 × 1,000 UC days during these periods, respectively. No differences were observed in the infection rate among periods for all patients (RR 1.06; 0.81-1.31). Multidrug-resistant organisms were identified in 7 patients, and non-multidrug-resistant in 6 cases. CONCLUSION The study findings describe a lower CAUTI risk over 9 years in non-critical acute care patients. The impact of COVID-19 on the CAUTI risk is mainly related to medical patients who had previously been admitted to critical care. The infection control program should consider these data as a benchmark for quality improvement.

Abstract
In Europe, the mean incidence of urinary tract infections in intensive care units is 1.1 per 1000 patient-days. Of these cases, catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) account for 98%. In total, CAUTI in hospitals is estimated to give additional health-care costs of £1-2.5 billion in the United Kingdom alone. This is in sharp contrast to the low cost of urinary catheters and emphasizes the need for innovative products that reduce the incidence rate of CAUTI. Ureteral stents and other urinary-tract devices suffer similar problems. Antimicrobial strategies are being developed, however, the evaluation of their efficacy is very challenging. This review aims to provide considerations and recommendations covering all relevant aspects of antimicrobial material testing, including surface characterization, biocompatibility, cytotoxicity, in vitro and in vivo tests, microbial strain selection, and hydrodynamic conditions, all in the perspective of complying to the complex pathology of device-associated urinary tract infection. The recommendations should be on the basis of standard assays to be developed which would enable comparisons of results obtained in different research labs both in industry and in academia, as well as provide industry and academia with tools to assess the antimicrobial properties for urinary tract devices in a reliable way.
