摘要

从源头上治疗尿路感染:尿路感染是医院常见的问题，特别是需要长期留置导尿管的患者。一种新的Foley导尿管，由硅制成，嵌入广谱抗生素，在使用三天内，尿路感染减少了10倍。它的制造商声称，医院每1000根导管可以节省68,000到438,000美元。

Antibiotic-laced urinary catheter helps prevent costly infections.

Treating urinary tract infections at the source: Urinary tract infection is a common problem in hospitals, particularly among patients who require long-term management with indwelling urinary catheters. A new Foley catheter, made of silicon imbedded with a broad-spectrum antibiotic, shows a 10-fold reduction in UTI within three days of use. Its maker claims hospitals can save $68,000 to $438,000 per 1,000 catheters.
