Abstract

Diagnostic stewardship of urine cultures is a recognized tool for CAUTI prevention, yet few diagnostic algorithms have been validated. This study of a novel diagnostic CAUTI algorithm showed a significant and durable improvement in urine culturing, catheter exchange, and CAUTI rate, supporting this algorithm as an effective diagnostic stewardship tool.
