Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Patients with urinary catheters

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence of CAUTIs:
Time Frame: one month
The primary outcome will be the rate of CAUTIs before and after the implementation of the infection control program. CAUTIs will be defined according to the criteria established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and will include clinical signs, symptoms, and positive urine cultures.
one month

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Length of Hospital Stay:
Time Frame: one month
The average length of stay for patients with CAUTIs will be compared preand post-intervention. A reduction in length of stay may indicate improved patient outcomes and decreased complications.
one month
