8 Catheter associated UTI and resistance CAUTI are the major reservoir for resistant nosocomial pathogens in hospitals and NHs Wagenlehner FM, Niemetz A, Dalhoff A, Naber KG, Int J Antimicrob Agents Jun;19(6):

9 Diagnosis of catheter UTI Gold standard is urine culture Dipstick and other non-culture tests are not reliable Number of organisms is controversial
