British Journal of Infection Control, 03/17/09
Barford JMT et al. - Catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) remains one of the most common types of hospital-acquired infections. A suggestion for the prevention of CAUTI is the use of catheters with an additional eye-hole beneath the balloon to prevent residual urine in the bladder or to remove the tip and balloon altogether, with the additional benefit of having no tip to cause damage or inflammation to the bladder epithelium.
