background and objectives: nosocomial infections are usually acquired during hospitalization. fungal infection of the urinary tract is increasing due to predisposing factors such as; antibacterial agents, indwelling urinary catheters, diabetes mellitus, long hospitalization, immunosuppressive agents, use of iv catheters, radiation therapy, malignancy. the aim of our study was to determine the p...
In long-term care facilities, 5 to 15% of residents have chronic urinary catheters in place. Catheters are commonly used for urinary retention, incontinence control, wound management, and patient comfort. The appropriate use and management of these devices continues to be studieddebated. Transurethral catheters are more common than suprapubic or condom-type devices, but no method has been prove...
Caring for patients with an indwelling urinary catheter is common in nursing practice. While catheters are essential for some patients, evidence suggests that in many cases catheterisation may be unjustified. This exposes patients to significant and unnecessary risks of acquiring urinary tract infections, extending their length of stay and imposing an extra burden of care and cost on healthcare...
Purple urine-bag syndrome is a rare condition that occurs in patients with indwelling urinary catheters carried over a long period and frequently associated with a urinary tract infection. It is characterized by the appearance of a violet coloration of the probe and/or the urine collection bag. We report the first case in West Africa that occurred in a 47-year-old woman in uremic encephalopathy...

BACKGROUND Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans biofilms are major causes of catheter-associated urinary tract infections. Antimicrobial-coated or impregnated urinary catheters are seen as a possible way to prevent these infections. AIMS To determine the biofilm-forming ability of 89 E. faecalis isolates from urinary ...
Catheter-associated urinary tract infection is the most prevalent cause of nosocomial infections. Bacteria associated with biofilm formation play a key role in the morbidity and pathogenesis of these infections. Nitric oxide (NO) is a naturally produced free radical with proven bactericidal effect. In this study, Foley urinary catheters were impregnated with gaseous NO. The catheters demonstrat...
The number of catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) increases every year. The increasing number of CAUTIs bears on fact that urinary catheters became second most often used foreign body inserted into human body. Over 40% of nosocomial infections are infections of urinary tract, especially infections of catheterised patients (Gorman & Jones, 1991). Despite good aseptic management...
