Decreasing Catheter Associated Urinary Tract Infections Urinary Tract Infections are one of the most common hospital-acquired infection and many are associated with an indwelling catheter. For each day a catheter is in place the risk of developing a CAUTI increases 3%-7% (Kahnen‚ Flanders‚ & Magalong‚ 2011 ). Although indwelling urinary catheters are widely used in hospitalized patients and can provide an appropriate means of therapeutic management‚ they are often used without clear indications

only one cell. Bacteria multiply by splitting themselves in two‚ which is called a binary fission. Because of this they can increase in number rapidly. The majority are harmless‚ but some can be pathogenic which results in bacterial infection occuring. Bacterial infections can be treated by using antibiotics. Bacteria can evolve a resistance to antibiotic e.g. MRSA. Some diseases caused by bacteria include tuberculosis‚ pneumonia‚ salmonella‚ tetanus and syphilis. Viruses - are extremely small

Microbiologist Microbiologists are scientists that focus on organisms that can sometimes cause infection. They study bacteria‚ fungi and viruses. They try and diagnose infections so that they can identify and characterise organisms. They have a big effect on the world as without them‚ we would have no cure for illnesses. A skill that a microbiologist requires is to be able to create a sample using one hand as this is more efficient and also vastly more productive than performing the procedure without

Bacteria is something that we need some of‚ it needs a warmth‚ moisture‚ time and food in order to multiply‚ which in the right conditions they multiply quickly. Viruses need a living host in order to survive‚ they don’t respond to antibiotics and new strains of virus are developing all the time. Fungi are moulds and yeasts‚ they need a warm and damp environment to survive‚ much
