infections.

Learning objectives

• 50 minutes
December 1, 2013
Time involved
3
• Up to 40% of all HAIs
• Most involve urinary catheterisation
• Risk of bacteriuria
December 1, 2013
Introduction
• 5% per day during the first week to almost 100% at 4
weeks of catheterisation
• 1 to 4% of patients with bacteriuria will
develop infection
4
December 1, 2013
Urinary tract sites commonly
associated with infection
5
• Urine is an ultrafiltrate of blood, is normally
sterile
• Small numbers of perineal/ vaginal/bowel
microorganisms in the distal urethra
• Constantly washed out by micturition
December 1, 2013
Urine
• Bacteriuria = bacteria in the urine
6
• Specimen contamination reduced by
• Cleaning external urethral area before collection
• Collecting mid-stream urines
• Urethral bacteria washed out in the first part of the stream
December 1, 2013
Collection of urine
• Processing specimen promptly, or refrigerating, to
prevent overgrowth of contaminants
7
• Urine must be processed promptly
• Contaminants can multiply at room temperature and
give falsely high colony counts
December 1, 2013
Laboratory diagnosis
• If delay expected, transport the specimen in an
ice box or add boric acid (1% W/V or 1 g/10 ml
of urine)
8
• Usually endogenous microorganisms
• E. coli and Proteus commonest in community
infections
• Catheter-associated UTI (CAUTI)
December 1, 2013
Microbiology
• E. coli commonest
• Increasingly caused by resistant species
• Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, Enterococcus and multiply drug
resistant ESBL, VRE

Microbiological support
• The diagnosis of UTI depends on the
microbiological support available
• In patients with indwelling catheters, infections
frequently polymicrobial
• Presence of multiple bacteria does not necessarily
indicate contamination
11
11
• Small numbers of bacteria are insignificant
• True infections have large numbers in bladder
urine
• Microbiology labs count the number of bacteria in a
urine specimen as ‘colony-forming units’ (cfu)
• Significant bacteriuria gives a >95% likelihood of true
UTI
December 1, 2013
Quantitative bacteriology
• ≥100,000 cfu/mL urine in 2 carefully-collected mid-stream
urines (MSUs)

• When large numbers of bacteria (>105/mL) in
specimens of bladder urine & evidence of true
UTI
December 1, 2013
Significant bacteriuria
• Smaller (insignificant) numbers may be due to
contamination of the urine specimen during collection
- urine has to pass through urethra
• Contamination can come from perineum/genitalia

• In non-catheterised patients:
• Fever, supra-pubic tenderness, frequency, dysuria
• Pyuria
• Positive nitrite reaction and a positive leukocyte
esterase reaction
December 1, 2013
Clinical diagnosis
• In catheterised patients
• Fever and leukocytosis or leucopenia additional
diagnostic criteria
17
• Surveillance of CAUTI in selected patients
• e.g. intensive care or surgical
• Definition may be obtained:
December 1, 2013
Definition and Surveillance
• USA CDC/NHSN
• Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/ National
Healthcare Safety Network
• HELICS
• Hospital in Europe for Link Infection Control through
Surveillance
18
• Normally urethral flora flushed out
• With catheterisation, flushing mechanism
circumvented
• Flora can pass up through catheter or from
drainage bag
• Hands of personnel may contaminate the system
during insertion or management

Pathogenesis of a CatheterAssociated UTI
19
from Damani N N, Keyes JK. Infection Control Manual, 2004
December 1, 2013
Four main sites through which
bacteria may reach the bladder
in a catheterised patient
20
Care bundle approach
• Evidence-based interventions
• When implemented together result in reduction in
CAUTIs

Principles to Prevent UTI - 1
21
Staff training
• Training on procedures for insertion and
maintenance of urinary catheters based on local
written protocols
December 1, 2013
Principles to Prevent UTI - 2
Catheter size
• Smallest diameter catheter that allows free flow of
urine
22
Antimicrobial coated catheters
• Reduce asymptomatic bacteriuria
• For placement less than 1 week
December 1, 2013
Principles to Prevent UTI - 3
• No evidence they decrease symptomatic infections
• Should not be used routinely
• Should be considered in selected high risk patients
23
Catheter insertion and care
•
•
•
•
Sterile equipment and aseptic technique
Sterile lubricant or local anaesthetic gel
Meatal cleansing with soap and water
Antimicrobial ointment harmful
December 1, 2013
Principles to Prevent UTI - 4
• Should be avoided
24
Drainage tubing and bag
•Secure to the patient
•Catheter drainage bag below the bladder
•Bag and tap not in contact with the floor
•Clamp drainage during movements
•Not disconnect the drainage bag
•Bag emptied when ¾ full
•Hand hygiene
•Alcohol impregnated swabs
•No disinfectant added to bag

Principles to Prevent UTI - 5
25
Specimen collection
• Samples from the port
• Aseptic technique
• Disinfection of port with
alcohol
• Sterile needle, syringe,
container
• Never a sample from the bag.
• No routine testing
December 1, 2013
Principles to Prevent UTI - 6
26
Antimicrobial agents
• Routine administration not recommended
• Single dose prophylactic may be used in selected
patients
• No routine use while the catheter in situ
• Treatment may not be successful

Principles to Prevent UTI - 7
27
Condom catheters
• May be used for short-term drainage
• Frequent changes
• Removed if irritation or skin
breakdown
• Condom for 24 hour continuous use
should be avoided
December 1, 2013
Principles to Prevent UTI - 8
28
• Avoid urinary catheterisation
• not for incontinence
• consider intermittent catheterisation
• Remove catheters as soon as possible
• Aseptic technique and sterile equipment
• Don’t change catheters routinely
• Closed drainage system

• IFIC’s mission is to facilitate international networking in
order to improve the prevention and control of
healthcare associated infections worldwide. It is an
umbrella organisation of societies and associations of
healthcare professionals in infection control and related
fields across the globe .
• The goal of IFIC is to minimise the risk of infection within
healthcare settings through development of a network of
infection control organisations for communication,
consensus building, education and sharing expertise.
