Fig 1 Evolution from the health care-associated infection (HAI) and catheter-associted urinary tract infection (CAUTI) during the years 2013-2015 in the adult intensive care unit of a Brazilian university hospital, related to some interventions in nursing legislation (Resolution that restricts catheter insertion to nurses6) and institutional implementation in response to the Resolution. Catheterization routine and nursing training are marked by arrows.
