Summary

Urinary catheters are often needed in hospital patients, but their use can increase the chance that a catheter associated urinary tract infection (called a CAUTI) may occur. This study will try to determine if patients who get a new silver coated catheter will have slower to time to development of a CAUTI compared to patients who get an uncoated catheter.

Detailed description

This study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled pivotal study designed to compare the time to occurrence and incidence of CAUTI in subjects catheterized with a new hydrogel-silver salts latex catheter (test) to those of subjects catheterized with a silicone elastomer-coated latex catheter (control).
