Microbial biofilms in indwelling urinary catheters promote persistent and recurrent infections. This is due to their complex nature and resistance to commonly used antibiotics that are a challenge to management of catheter associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI). The present study was conducted to detect biofilm production by isolates from patients with CAUTI, and their association with antibiotic resistance.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines CAUTI for those patients who have an indwelling catheter in place for 48 h or more and symptoms such as fever or chills, new onset of burning pain, urgency or frequency if not catheterized at that point of time, change in urine character, flank or suprapubic pain or tenderness or change or decrease in mental or functional status in patients. CAUTI is usually presence of at least 10³ colony-forming units (cfu)/mL of 1 or 2 micro-organisms by urine culture.

One of the most common infections acquired by patients in health care facilities is the Urinary tract infection attributed to the use of an indwelling urinary catheter. Catheteracquired urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is the source for about 20% of episodes of healthcare acquired bacteremia in acute care facilities.

Candida species have been reported from many countries worldwide and a significant morbidity & mortality in immunocompromised individuals and hospitalised patients. The Candida species are now among the four most common causes of hospital associated infections, catheter associated, urinary tract and blood stream infections. This was a cross sectional study in this the clinical samples received in the Microbiology laboratory for routine culture form the source.

Aim of the study was to isolate and characterize Gram positive cocci causing urinary tract infections in catheterized patients and to study the antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of the urinary isolates. Total of 100 catheterised patients in Intensive care units were analysed retrospectively in a period of 1 year from December 2017 to November 2018 to assess the urinary tract infections. Of 100 cases,11 showed catheter associated urinary tract infections. Out of them 10 were Enterococcus spp, and 1 was Coagulase negative staphylococci.

Aim of the study was to isolate and characterize Gram negative bacilli causing urinary tract infections in catheterized patients of either sex and above 19 years of age in intensive care units and to study the antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of the urinary isolates. Total of 100 catheterised patients in Intensive care units were analysed retrospectively and prospectively in a period of 1 year from December 2012 to November 2013 to assess the urinary tract infections caused by indwelling catheter. Of 100 cases, 26 showed catheter associated urinary tract infections. Out of them 11 were E.

Urinary Tract Infections Urinary tract infections (UTIs) account for as many as 40–45% of nosocomial infections; up to 3% of bacteriuric patients develop bacteremia. Although UTIs contribute only 10–15% to prolongation of hospital stay and to extra costs, these infections are important reservoirs and sources for spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in hospitals. Almost all nosocomial UTIs are associated with preceding instrumentation or indwelling bladder catheters, which create a 3–10% risk of infection each day.
