Discussion – Catheter associated urinary tract infections 1. Select one article, which investigate the chosen team topic (CAUTI (prevention, guidelines for foley use, etc) using different quantitative methods. Create an annotated bibliography of 150 words. Consider the following when summarizing: What is the purpose of this article? What topics are covered? What was the research design? How many subjects were included and how were they recruited? Issues with reliability or validity? What are the main arguments/ findings? What are the study limitations? Any suggestions for future research? a) Catheter associated urinary tract infections Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2014, Volume 3, Number 1, Page 1, Lindsay E Nicolle b) Reduction in catheter-associated urinary tract infections by bundling interventions Karen Clarke, David Tong, Yi Pan, Kirk A.

I will send you my teammates annotated bibliography. All in all, including the one that you will do for me, it- going to be 5 annotated bibliographies. Compiled and evaluated all articles with a 350-word summary. Create an outline of the summary. Articles: a. In Flanders research, she studies the intervention of daily rounding and the impact on the use, care, and early removal of indwelling foley catheters. The risk for catheter associated urinary tract infections is almost 100% by one month of use. In Flanders research, pre-intervention data collection reveals a 21.4% use of indwelling catheters. The intervention includes unit-based education, using a variety of methods including huddles, email, and supplemental educational materials. In addition to educational material, the use of a CAUTI bundle is implemented, as is daily rounding. During daily rounding, the nurse leader completes a daily review of all patients with an indwelling catheter and the necessity of the intervention, reviews documentation of catheter care and perineal care, and voices any potential concerns. Following the intervention, there was a reduction of catheter use per patient day to 14.7%. Flanders, K. (2014). Rounding to reduce CAUTI. Nursing Management. doi:10.1097/01.NUMA.0000455738.86743.6f
