Abstract:
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) account for the majority of hospital-acquired infections (HAI), and most of these occur in catheterized patients. However, for most the presence of bacteria in the urine (bacteriuria) is asymptomatic, yet in many institutional and national surveillance studies it is still attributed as ‘infection’. Although guidance is that only symptomatic UTI should be treated, except in pregnancy, bacteriuria in catheterized patients is frequently overinvestigated and antibiotics overused. Most infections are caused by enteric bacteria such as Escherichia coli, but other bact

Abstract:
A urinary tract infection (UTI) is defined as present when urine culture results in the growth of a single organism at greater than 105 colony-forming units/ml of urine. Bowel flora are the commonest cause of UTIs. Escherichia coli accounts for 80% of infections. Klebsiella spp., Proteus mirabilis, Enterococcus faecalis, and Staphylococcal saprophyticus account for most of the remaining 20%. Staphylcoccus aureus culture is usually catheter related or secondary to haematogenous spread.

Abstract:
Bladder exstrophy is a rare condition in which there is an error in fetal development leaving the bladder and pelvic structure malformed. The bladder, pelvic girdle, and external genitalia are often split, requiring repair. The goals of this repair are to improve quality of life in terms of urinary continence, aesthetics, pelvic stabilization, and sexual function. This repair often requires prolonged traction and external fixation to adequately fuse the pelvic girdle. To aid in the healing and tolerance of this, a prolonged epidural catheter is often used.

Abstract:
Many patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) suffer from health care-associated infections. Age, immunosuppression, neutropenia, or multi-organ failure are preconditions, but health care-associated infections are largely related to the use of medical devices. Breaches of aseptic technique are the most important risk factor. Central line-associated bloodstream infections, ventilator-associated pneumonia, and catheter-associated urinary tract infections represent up to 75% of all health care-associated infections in the ICU.

Abstract:
Posterior urethral valves is the most common congenital cause of lower urinary tract obstruction in males, and a common cause (15–17%) for end-stage renal disease in childhood. Most commonly, posterior urethral valves is suspected on basis of a screening antenatal ultrasound. Ultrasound will not detect posterior urethral valves itself, but recognizes the consequences of lower urinary tract obstruction with a dilated thick-walled bladder and dilation of the prostatic portion of the urethra. After birth, urine drainage has to be secured by placement of a bladder catheter, and imaging is needed t

Abstract:
Oliguria can be caused by any factor that affects renal function, or the free passage of urine down the urinary tract. Complete anuria most commonly occurs in men as a consequence of bladder outlet obstruction from an enlarged prostate. It can also arise in patients who have a single functioning kidney which then becomes obstructed or loses its vascular supply. Oliguria occurs commonly in hospitalized patients, is usually secondary to impaired renal perfusion, and is often predictable. The elderly and more unwell patients, for example, those in critical care settings, are most at risk. The pre

Abstract:
Urological and gynaecological procedures are commonly performed in the elderly. Usually, urinary tract endoscopy and surgery should only be performed if the urine is made sterile. Infection of the urinary tract is always a threat, specifically in obstructive diseases and in patients with permanent bladder catheters. Simple measures may prevent most of the transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) syndrome cases. The elderly patient taking anti-platelet or anticoagulant drugs and presented for endoscopic urological surgery are at special risk because these may lead to life-threatening haem

Abstract:
Recipients of donor-derived tissues and organs are at particularly high risk of infection because of their unique combination of risk factors. Chronic illness results in more exposure to health care contexts in which pathogens—especially drug-resistant species—might be acquired. The transplant surgery itself compromises anatomical barriers to infection via indwelling venous and urinary catheters, endotracheal tubes, and surgical wounds. Donor-derived tissues and organs may harbor infectious pathogens undetected during rapid pre-transplant evaluations. The immunosuppression necessary to prevent

Emergence delirium is a common and challenging post-anesthetic complication in children characterized by a brief period of inconsolability, disorientation, and combativeness. Emergence delirium threatens patient safety due to potential self-injurious behavior or by untimely removal of intravenous lines, urinary catheters, and surgical drains. The economic impact of emergence delirium is a consequence of delayed post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) discharge and the need for additional medication administration and increased PACU staffing.
