Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of the periurethral cleansing range on catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) occurrence remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of expanded periurethral cleansing for reducing CAUTI in comatose patients. METHODS In this randomized controlled trial, eligible patients in our hospital were enrolled and allocated randomly to the experimental group (expanded periurethral cleansing protocol; n = 225) or the control group (usual periurethral cleansing protocol; n = 221). The incidence of CAUTI on days 3, 7, and 10 after catheter insertion were compared, and the pathogen results and influencing factors were analyzed. RESULTS The incidences of CAUTI in the experimental and control groups on days 3, 7, and 10 were (5/225, 2.22% vs. 7/221, 3.17%, P = 0.54), (12/225, 5.33% vs. 18/221, 8.14%, P = 0.24), and (23/225, 10.22% vs. 47/221, 21.27%, P = 0.001), respectively; Escherichia coli and Candida albicans were the most common species in the two groups. The incidences of bacterial CAUTI and fungal CAUTI in the two groups were 11/225, 4.89% vs. 24/221, 10.86%, P = 0.02) and (10/225, 4.44% vs. 14/221, 6.33%, P = 0.38), respectively. The incidences of polymicrobial CAUTI in the two groups were 2/225 (0.89%) and 9/221 (4.07%), respectively (P = 0.03). The percentages of CAUTI-positive females in the two groups were 9.85% (13/132) and 29.52% (31/105), respectively (P < 0.05). The proportion of CAUTI-positive patients with diabetes in the experimental and control groups was 17.72% (14/79), which was lower than the 40.85% (29/71) in the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Expanded periurethral cleansing could reduce the incidence of CAUTI, especially those caused by bacteria and multiple pathogens, in comatose patients with short-term catheterization (≤ 10 days). Female patients and patients with diabetes benefit more from the expanded periurethral cleansing protocol for reducing CAUTI.

Abstract
Objectives To identify urinary catheter (UC)-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) incidence and risk factors (RF) in nine Middle Eastern countries. Methods We conducted a prospective cohort study between 1 January 2014 and 2 December 2022 in 212 intensive care units (ICUs) of 67 hospitals in 38 cities in nine Middle Eastern countries (Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and the UAE). To estimate CAUTI incidence, we used the number of UC days as denominator and the number of CAUTIs as numerator. To estimate CAUTI RFs, we analyzed the following 10 variables using multiple logistic regression: patient sex, age, length of stay (LOS) before CAUTI acquisition, UC-days before CAUTI acquisition, UC-device utilization (DU) ratio, hospitalization type, ICU type, facility-ownership, country income level classified by World Bank, and time period. Results Among 50 637 patients hospitalized for 434 523 patient days, there were 580 cases of acquired CAUTIs. The pooled CAUTI rate per 1000 UC days was 1.84. The following variables were independently associated with CAUTI: age, rising risk 1.0% yearly (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.01, 95% CI: 1.01-1.02; p < 0.0001); female sex (aOR = 1.31, 95% CI: 1.09-1.56; p < 0.0001); LOS before CAUTI acquisition, rising risk 6.0% daily (aOR = 1.06, 95% CI: 1.05-1.06; p < 0.0001); and UC/DU ratio (aOR = 1.11, 95% CI: 1.06-1.14; p < 0.0001). Patients from lower-middle-income countries (aOR = 4.11, 95% CI: 2.49-6.76; p < 0.0001) had a similar CAUTI risk to the upper-middle countries (aOR = 3.75, 95% CI: 1.83-7.68; p < 0.0001). The type of ICU with the highest risk for CAUTI was neurologic ICU (aOR = 27.35, 95% CI: 23.03-33.12; p < 0.0001), followed by medical ICU (aOR = 6.18, 95% CI: 2.07-18.53; p < 0.0001) when compared to cardiothoracic ICU. The periods 2014-2016 (aOR = 7.36, 95% CI: 5.48-23.96; p < 0.001) and 2017-2019 (aOR = 1.15, 95% CI: 3.46-15.61; p < 0.001) had a similar risk to each other, but a higher risk compared to 2020-2022. Conclusions The following CAUTI RFs are unlikely to change: age, sex, ICU type, and country income level. Based on these findings, it is suggested to focus on reducing LOS, UC/DU ratio, and implementing evidence-based CAUTI prevention recommendations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) are the most common device-associated infections in hospitals and can be prevented. To identify the risk factors and develop a risk prediction model for CAUTIs among neurosurgical intensive care unit (NICU) patients. METHODS All patients admitted to the NICU of a tertiary hospital between January 2019 and January 2020 were enrolled. Two decision tree models were applied to analyze the risk factors associated with CAUTIs in NICU patients. The performance of the decision tree model was evaluated. RESULTS A total of 537 patients admitted to the NICU with indwelling catheters were recruited for this study. The rate of CAUTIs was 4.44 per 1000 catheter days, and Escherichia coli was the predominant pathogen causing CAUTIs among indwelling catheter patients. The classification and regression tree model displayed good power of prediction (area under the curve : 0.920). Nine CAUTI risk factors (age ≥60 years (P = 0.004), Glasgow Coma Scale score ≤8 (P = 0.009), epilepsy at admission (P = 0.007), admission to the hospital during the summer (P < 0.001), ventilators use (P = 0.007), receiving less than 2 types of antibiotics (P < 0.001), albumin level <35 g/L (P = 0.002), female gender (P = 0.002), and having an indwelling catheter for 7-14 days (P = 0.001) were also identified. CONCLUSION We developed a novel scoring model for predicting the risk of CAUTIs in patients with neuro-critical illness in daily clinical practice. This model identified several risk factors for CAUTI among NICU patients, novel factors including epilepsy and admission during the summer, can be used to help providers prevent and reduce the risk of CAUTI among vulnerable groups.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Nosocomial extracardiac infections after cardiac surgery are a major public health issue affecting 3–8.2% of patients within 30–60 days following the intervention. Recent Findings Here, we have considered the most important postoperative infective complications that, in order of frequency, are pneumonia, surgical site infection, urinary tract infection, and bloodstream infection. The overall picture that emerges shows that they cause a greater perioperative morbidity and mortality with a longer hospitalization time and excess costs. Preventive interventions and corrective measures, diminishing the burden of nosocomial extracardiac infections, may reduce the global costs. A multidisciplinary team may assure a more appropriate management of nosocomial extracardiac infections leading to a reduction of hospitalization time and mortality rate. Summary The main and most current data on epidemiology, prevention, microbiology, diagnosis, and management for each one of the most important postoperative infective complications are reported. The establishment of an antimicrobial stewardship in each hospital seems to be, at the moment, the more valid strategy to counteract the challenging problems.

Abstract
This systematic review addresses the central research question, "what is known from the published, peer-reviewed literature about the impact of diabetes on the risk of bacterial urinary tract infections (UTI)?" We examine the results from laboratory studies where researchers have successfully adapted mouse models of diabetes to study the pathophysiology of ascending UTI. These studies have identified molecular and cellular effectors shaping immune defenses against infection of the diabetic urinary tract. In addition, we present evidence from clinical studies that in addition to diabetes, female gender, increased age, and diabetes-associated hyperglycemia, glycosuria, and immune impairment are important risk factors which further increase the risk of UTI in diabetic individuals. Clinical studies also show that the uropathogenic genera causing UTI are largely similar between diabetic and nondiabetic individuals, although diabetes significantly increases risk of UTI by drug-resistant uropathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is one of the most common infections in health care caused by several risk factors. AIM This study aims at analysing the risky factors triggering CAUTI. METHODS This research was designed by applying prospective study. It was conducted from July to November 2018 by involving 82 patients attached to the catheter and treated in the General Hospital of Medan as the sample. The study instrument used observational sheets by measuring the occurrence of urinary tract infection using urine culture analysis ≥ 105 CFU/ml. RESULTS The results showed that there was a relationship (p < 0.05) amongs age (p = 0.01; RR = 0.51), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.00; RR = 7.61), duration of catheterization (p = 0.00; RR = 0.01), indications for catheter use (p = 0.00; RR = 0.34) with CAUTI, and there were not significant relationship (p > 0.05) amongs genre (p = 0.06; RR = 1.72), drainage system (p = 0.43; RR = 0.43) and catheter care (p = 0.08; RR = 0.50) with CAUTI. Diabetes mellitus (p = 0.00; OR = 8.92 95% CI = 1.02-11.83) and duration of catheterization (p = 0, 00; OR = 32.84 95% CI = 3.81-322.74) were the most significant factor related to CAUTI. CONCLUSION CAUTI is influenced by various factors, and it can be controlled by understanding those factors so that the right interventions to prevent the infections can be taken and the quality of nursing care can be increased as well.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients undergoing open-heart surgery may suffer from postoperative complications, including severe infections. Antimicrobials to treat infectious complications in this population should be selected thoughtfully, taking into account three different and fundamental issues: (i) the site of infection; (ii) the suspected or proven causative agent and its susceptibility pattern; and (iii) the risk of suboptimal pharmacokinetic characteristics and potential toxicity of the chosen drug/s. AREAS COVERED The present narrative review summarizes the current and future antimicrobial options for the treatment of infections developing after open-heart surgery. EXPERT OPINION The pharmacological treatment of infections developing in cardiac surgery patients poses peculiar challenges, including the need for an active empirical therapy for severe events such as bloodstream infections, deep sternal wound infections, or early-onset postoperative prosthetic endocarditis. In addition, the risk for multidrug-resistant pathogens should also be taken into account in endemic areas. A multidisciplinary evaluation on a patient-by-patient basis, deeply involving infectious diseases specialists and cardiothoracic surgeons, remains essential for appropriately balancing both short-term and long-term risks and benefits of any possible surgical reintervention in combination with adequate pharmacotherapy.

Abstract
AIMS The study aimed to identify the risk factors for catheter-associated urinary tract infection among hospitalized patients. We also tried to explore its potential effect on patient outcomes if possible. BACKGROUND Catheter-associated urinary tract infection accounts for a large proportion of healthcare-associated infections and remains a considerable threat to patient safety worldwide. DESIGN A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. DATA SOURCES We conducted an electronic search in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews for studies published between January 2008-January 2018. REVIEW METHODS Two reviewers searched the articles and extracted the data independently. The quality of the studies was assessed with the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. RevMan 5.3 was used to perform the meta-analysis. RESULTS Ten studies involving a total of 8785 participants with or without catheter-associated urinary tract infection were included. The average incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infection was 13.79 per 1000 catheter days, with a prevalence rate of 9.33%. The meta-analysis demonstrated that patients at high risk for catheter-associated urinary tract infection were female, had a prolonged duration of catheterization, had diabetes, had previous catheterization, and had longer hospital and ICU stays. Additionally, catheter-associated urinary tract infection was also accompanied by an increase in mortality. CONCLUSIONS Healthcare staff should focus on the identified risk factors for catheter-associated urinary tract infection. Further research is needed to investigate the microbial isolates and focus on the intervention strategies of catheter-associated urinary tract infection, so as to reduce its incidence and related mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hospital-associated UTI rates in surgery patients have not improved despite recommendations for reducing indwelling catheter days. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of institutional NSQIP general surgery patient data, 2006-2015. During this time, a UTI-reduction policy was implemented. Demographics, HA-UTI incidence, CA-UTI incidence, indwelling catheter days, straight catheterization rates, and mortality were examined. RESULTS Females had significantly higher risk of HA-UTI. There was no significant change in HA-UTI (X12 = 0.02, p = .878) or indwelling catheter days (5.18 ± 1.12 days v 3.73 ± 0.39 days, p = .23). Straight catheterizations among those with HA-UTI increased (0.04 ± 0.04 v 0.32 ± 0.12, p = .029). There was no change in CA-UTI (1.38 v 1.11 CAUTI/1000 patient hospital-days P = .555) or in initial indwelling catheter days of patients with CA-UTI (7.2 SD 8.89 v 47.0 SD 7.04 days P = .961) after policy implementation. CONCLUSIONS The reduction policy increased the number of straight catheterizations for patients developing HA-UTI, but did not reduce the number of initial indwelling catheter days, HA-UTI rates, or CA-UTI rates.

Ann Vasc Surg 2017; 41:151-159. [PMID: 28238924 DOI: 10.1016/j.avsg.2016.09.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2016] [Revised: 09/09/2016] [Accepted: 09/30/2016] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite advances in perioperative care, the rate of cardiac events in vascular patients remains high. We have previously shown that infections in trauma patients are associated with higher rates of subsequent cardiac complications, likely due to the additive effect of a second hit of an infection following the trauma. The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is an association between postoperative infections and subsequent cardiac events in vascular patients. METHODS A 5-year retrospective review of demographics, comorbidities, operative interventions, infectious, and cardiac events in all vascular patients who underwent an operative intervention at a single tertiary referral center was performed. In patients with clinical suspicion of myocardial injury, myocardial damage was defined as troponin >0.15 ng/mL and myocardial infarction (MI) as troponin >1 ng/mL. Pneumonia was diagnosed using bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and considered positive if BAL fluid culture contained >10,000 colony-forming units (cfu). Urinary tract infection (UTI) was diagnosed if the urine culture contained >100,000 cfu. All other infections were diagnosed by culture data. Regression analysis was performed to assess risk of cardiac events as a function of infections adjusting for age, gender, and comorbidities. RESULTS We analyzed 1,835 vascular operative interventions with the mean age of the cohort 65.5 years (65.9% male). The overall infection rate was 13.2%, with UTI being the most common (60.3%). The overall rate of myocardial damage was 8.1% and the rate of MI 3.8%. Rates of both myocardial damage (15.5 vs. 7.7%; P = 0.0015) and MI (7.1 vs. 3.4%; P = 0.018) were significantly higher in patients with infections, compared to those without infections. Adjusting for age, gender, medical comorbidities, open versus endovascular cases as well as statin and steroid use, patients with UTI were more likely to subsequently develop either myocardial damage (odds ratio [OR] = 3.57 [95% confidence interval = 1.51-8.45]) or MI (OR = 4.20 [1.23-14.3]). A similar association was noted between any infections and either myocardial damage (OR = 2.97 [1.32-6.65]) or MI (OR = 4.31 [1.44-12.94]). CONCLUSIONS We herein describe an association between postoperative infections, most commonly UTI, and subsequent cardiac events. Efforts should be made to minimize the risk of developing infections to ensure cardioprotection in vascular patients during perioperative period.
