where do PICOT questions arise? Answer: out of clinical inquiry
*A search strategy, not a project
On our med-surg unit, we have a lot of elderly patients who are admitted from nursing homes that have
foley catheters. We also have a large number of surgical patients that come to us from the OR with a
new foley catheters. Although we work hard to try to get foleys out as soon as possible, our catheter-
acquired urinary tract infection rates are higher than they should be, especially in patients with a foley.
One of the challenges is there is often a delay in getting an order to remove the foley from the
physicians. We're wondering if there is a way to remove foleys more efficiently by using a nurse-driven
standardized catheter removal protocol and see if we can improve our CAUTI rates.
