ObjectiveTo analyze the related risk factors for catheter-associated urinary tract infection in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and make corresponding nursing countermeasures. MethodsBy target monitoring of catheter-associated urinary tract infection in 184 patients in the ICU from 2011 to 2012, infection risk factors were analyzed. The measures of nursing interventions had been taken since January 2012, and the effects before and after the intervention were contrasted and evaluated. ResultsBefore the intervention, 951 out of 1 229 patients in 2011 had indwelling catheter, and catheter-associated urinary tract infection occurred in 127 patients with an infection rate of 13.35%. After the intervention, 841 out of 1 437 in 2012 had indwelling catheter, and catheter-associated urinary tract infection occurred in 57 patients with an infection rate of 6.78%. ConclusionTaking effective intervention measures can effectively reduce the ICU catheter-associated urinary tract infection and it also ensures the safety of medical care.
