UTI Prevention in Patients with Foley Catheters Lourdes Health Network 2011

Background UTIs account for over 6 million patient visits to physicians per year in the United States. UTIs are the most common hospital acquired (HA) infection 80% of HA-UTI are attributable to indwelling urethral catheters. 12-16% of hospitalized patients will get a Foley and half of them do NOT have a valid indication. Risk of UTI increases 3-7% for every day with Foley

Relevance UTIs increase a patient’s length of stay an average of 0.5 -1 day The estimated cost per Catheter Associated UTI (CAUTI) ranges $500- $3000 If not documented upon admission (CAUTI), then hospital cannot code for higher reimbursement DRG for Medicare patients in some hospitals

Urinary Tract Infections Definition of UTI a microbial infection (typically bacterial) of the urethra, bladder, ureters, or kidneys. Most common is Escheria coli Certain people are at a higher risk for kidney infections if they develop asymptomatic bacteriuria. The following increases your risk DiabetesInfected kidney stones Kidney transplant Older age Pregnancy -- up to 40% of pregnant women with untreated asymptomatic bacteriuria will develop a kidney infectionVesicoureteral reflux in young children

UTI Definition continued… Symptomatic more typical presentation (burning with urination, urinary frequency, low fever, cloudy urine (possibly), foul odor to urine, pressure or cramping in lower abdomen Asymptomatic bacteriuria a significant number of bacteria in the urine that occurs without usual symptoms such as burning during urination or frequent urination. Those with urinary catheters will more likely have this condition.

3 Primary Routes of Infection Catheter-meatal junction More often in females (shorter urethra) Catheter manipulation Example: allowing drainage spout to touch the ground or contaminating the catheter tubing while placing a new drainage bag. Retrograde bacterial migration Example: lifting bag above level of bladder during transport or repositioning

More about indwelling catheters…. They are uncomfortable for patients Can be unnecessary for patient treatment plan (41-58% in place found to be not indicated) Can be associated with negative outcomes Urethral inflammation Urethral strictures Mechanical trauma to urethra/bladder Can DECREASE mobility (because the patient does not have to get out of bed to urinate) which may impede recovery or contribute to complications like pressure ulcers, pneumonia, and/or DVT

Appropriate Indications For Foley Catheters per LHN Protocol Criteria for Continuing Foley Catheter Strict I & O or aggressive treatment with diuretics or fluids Chronic urinary retention or bladder outlet obstruction Critically ill patient – hemodynamic instability Renal failure Recent renal/urology procedure Acute neurogenic bladder History of chronic, prolonged catherization or suprapubic catheter Hematuria Chemical sedation or paralyzation Terminally ill or palliative care patient Epidural catheter Pelvic or hip fracture Stage 3 or greater pressure ulceration on coccyx or buttocks Urinary retention- prolonged period of no urinary output post-operatively

Urinary Catheters are NOT Indicated for: Immobility or poor mobility General incontinence Skin excoriation Obtaining urine specimens Patient request Nurse convenience

What is a Nurse Initiated Foley Removal? A policy developed in keeping with national best practice standards which ensures that Foley catheters are used appropriately. Facilitates nursing assessment for approved indications for the use of a Foley catheters Nurses are empowered to remove unnecessary catheters (those not meeting an approved criteria) without a doctors order. Enables catheters to be removed earlier! Decreases potential for hospital acquired UTIs in our patients!!! DOCUMENT- sometimes MDs do not know the patient has a foley, thus they do not address the need to take it out)

This policy has been supported and approved by MEC!

Foley Removal Assessment & Documentation on Meditech

Foley Removal Assessment & Documentation on Meditech continued . . . . Look up for continuing Foley

If the patient does not meet any of the criteria for continuing the Foley catheter, REMOVE THE CATHETER!

Post catheter removal Educate patient about what to expect (e.g. to notify nursing with the first voided specimen, measuring urine, getting help if needed to go to the BR, etc.) Document due to void time(5 – 8 hours post catheter removal) and communicate this with the oncoming shift! Scan patients bladder and notify physician of inability to void if the patient is unable to void post removal.

Documentation of removal & due to void time (DTV)

Document Output - Post Catheter Removal

If Urinary Catheterization continues to be appropriate. . . . Use aseptic technique during subsequent catheter insertion and care Properly manage the system and components Keep closed drainage system Keep bag below level of the bladder Prevent excessive manipulation of the catheter Keep bag off of the floor Secure catheter to leg Provide catheter care daily and after bowel movements Continue to educate and advocate for the prompt removal of the Foley catheter
