Godfrey H et al. - It is important for nurses and other healthcare professionals to appreciate how catheters produce infection so that appropriate catheter care is used. The best way to avoid CAUTI is to avoid catheterization, whenever possible, and to remove indwelling catheters when they are no longer required. There is a need to raise public awareness about UI and the interventions and treatments available so that more older people seek help. The challenge for nurses is to avoid using catheters and develop alternative approaches to the care of older people with incontinence.
