Examining prevention strategies for UTIs in critical care units is the aim of this writing audit. MethodUse ProQuest, Scopus, and ScienceDirect to look up review literature. Urinary tract infections, prevention and management, and intensive care unit were the search terms used to find publications. Search parameters for full-text, open-access, English-language papers published between 2019 and 2023. ResultsThe studys findings indicate that adherence to patient information recording, installation and maintenance procedures, guidelines for the detection and prevention of CAUTI, staff education and good nursing practices, and the application of CAUTI prevention can all help lower the incidence of urinary tract infections. ConclusionHealthcare facilities need to have a program in place to avoid urinary tract infections brought on by catheter installation, as well as the best care possible for patients who use them. In order to solve the problem, all interdisciplinary teams must collaborate and analyze the issue using the PDSA methodology.
