Answer :

The nurse understands that the best way to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections (cautis) in long-term indwelling catheters is to replace the catheter on a routine basis.

A biofilm created from bacteria develops on long run inward catheters. the soleway to eliminate this biofilm is to exchange the tube. The effectuality of cranberry tablets in decreasing the frequency of urinary tract infections has not be established. Tube care is external and will not eliminate the biofilm. Antibiotic medical aid could increase the expansion of microbes among the biofilm.

There are 3 ways to cut back the speed of CAUTIS: (1) hindrance of inappropriate short tube use, (2) nurse-driven timely removal of urinary catheters, and (3) urinary tube care throughout placement.
