Discover a holistic approach to CAUTI prevention
The best way to lower the risk of CAUTIs is to reduce the use of Indwelling Urinary Catheter (IUC)s, limit IUC duration and follow aseptic technique. But when frontline staff is pressed for time, they may not always follow aseptic technique or choose a safer alternative to an IUC. Our Urological Solution makes it easy for clinicians to do the right thing and lower the risk of infection. From best practice guidance and caregiver education to the right system of products, we empower frontline staff to create a culture of safety.

• Interviews with leaders and staff
• Observations of catheter insertion
• Practice audits of catheter care and maintenance
• Product utilization reviews of all urological nursing products
• Storeroom reviews

Proper insertion and maintenance
We’ve created a system of products with innovative packaging that ensures clinicians have everything they need for insertion and maintenance of IUCs in a standardized, best practice way.
Nurse-designed, this patented tray is sequenced to guide aseptic IUC insertion step by step.
Soft cloths soaked in a pH solution for cleaning the perineum before and after catheter insertion.
Best practices recommend securing the IUC to the patient to prevent unnecessary catheter movement (pistoning) which can facilitate bacteria moving into the urinary tract.
