Hi All,
We are currently reviewing what definitions to use for assessing health care associated UTI / CAUTI. I would like to know what definitions others are using to classify these infections.
Kind regards,

Hi Fiona,
Edition 1 of Healthcare Infection this year has a protocol paper to UTI point prevalence studies. It includes an evaluation of a European & CDC definition & makes recommendations for Australia.
We also have another publication coming out in the BMJ open in the next couple of weeks, that hassle further detail on other points. I can email this offline if you like.
Thanks
