American Journal of Infection Control Jun 15, 2018

Ramezani F, et al. - In this clinical trial, researchers determined the efficacy of bladder irrigation with normal saline solution in preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) in comatose patients admitted to intensive care units.
