“…These hospitals may benefit from focusing on catheter maintenance and stewardship of culturing. 107,108 Section 6: Implementation strategies Preventing CAUTI requires a focus on both technical and socioadaptive (or behavioral) components. 116 Although the general concepts of implementation science are found in a companion article of the 2022 Compendium, we detail here some of the CAUTIspecific implementation work-and lessons learned-those hospitals should be aware of since the 2014 update.…”

and purposeThe intent of this document is to highlight practical recommendations in a concise format designed to assist physicians, nurses, and infection preventionists at acute-care hospitals in implementing and prioritizing their catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) prevention efforts. This document updates the Strategies to Prevent Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections in Acute-Care Hospitals published in 2014. It is the product of a collaborative effort led by SHEA, the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC), the American Hospital Association (AHA), and The Joint Commission.
