1.	Urinary Tract Infections (Urinary Tract Infection) 05/01/2000 - "However, it was very useful to record the presence of urinary catheters on the prevalence day and also the preceding days; for instance, a device-associated prevalence of 7.8 urinary tract infections per 100 patients with urinary catheters was found on the day of investigation. " 07/01/2016 - "To evaluate the impact of an intervention regarding the adequate use and improvement in the care of indwelling urinary catheters (IUC) and the frequency of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) in hospitalised patients. " 11/01/2009 - "To implement and evaluate the efficacy of an intervention to reduce catheter-associated urinary tract infections in a medical intensive care unit by decreasing use of urinary catheters. " 09/01/1996 - "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's "Guidelines for Prevention of Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infections" lists four criteria that are helpful in determining appropriate urinary catheter usage. " 11/01/1982 - "We evaluated the efficacy of a daily bacteriologic monitoring program for preventing symptomatic urinary tract infections (UTI) in hospitalized patients with temporary indwelling urethral catheters. "
2.	Urinary Retention 03/01/2007 - "The prevalence of IDC/DH-IDC was significantly greater in those with a history of urinary retention and an indwelling urethral catheter. " 08/01/2019 - "We aimed to determine whether voiding efficiency in the initial 24 h after urinary catheter removal was more effective in predicting the incidence of postoperative urinary retention than residual urine volume. " 01/01/2023 - "bladder ultrasonography was effective in measuring urinary volume after removal of the indwelling urinary catheter and and may contribute to the detection of urinary retention. " 09/01/2022 - "The patient initially underwent urinary catheter placement, which relieved urinary retention and iliac vein compression. " 06/01/2018 - "The urinary retention was relieved by manual removal of the necrotic tissue and passage of a Foley's urethral catheter. "
3.	Infections 02/09/2016 - "Overall, this work demonstrates the feasibility of an easy to perform and shape-independent method for preparing an antifouling and antimicrobial coating for the significant reduction of biofilm formation and thus reducing the risk of acquiring infections by using urinary catheters. " 03/01/2015 - "Some respondents were satisfied with or preferred a urethral catheter; others preferred a suprapubic catheter because they perceived that suprapubic catheters led to fewer infections, were more hygienic, more comfortable, improved self-image, allowed a sense of control, and were better suited for sexual relations. " 09/01/1997 - "This new material for urinary catheters has the potential to provide protection against infection and surface colonization." 06/01/2017 - "The findings from this study may promote changes in clinical practice guidelines leading to a reduction in urinary catheter utilization and infection rates and improved patient outcomes." 07/30/2022 - "Catheter-Associated Urinary Infections and Consequences of Using Coated versus Non-Coated Urethral Catheters-Outcomes of a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Trials."
4.	Bacteriuria 08/01/2011 - "To compare the efficacy of both commercially available and emerging urinary catheter technologies in relation to their effects on bacteriuria caused by Escherichia coli in vitro. " 08/01/2011 - "Comparative efficacy of commercially available and emerging antimicrobial urinary catheters against bacteriuria caused by E. " 04/01/2007 - "In conclusion, the efficacy of treatment and the time point of bacteriurial elimination were determined by the presence of a urinary catheter, drug susceptibility, and urinary complexity in patients with positive bacteriuria undergoing antibacterial chemotherapy." 06/01/2023 - "This study compared the incidence of significant bacteriuria in patients who had removal of their urinary catheter in 12 hours compared to those removed after 24 hours following uncomplicated caesarean section. " 01/01/2017 - "Interventional studies with a comparison group reporting at least 1 outcome for: catheter-associated UTI (CAUTI), UTIs not identified as catheter-associated, bacteriuria, or urinary catheter use. "
5.	Pain (Aches) 06/01/2020 - "Implementation of ERAS for the Nuss procedure leads to a significant reduction in LOS, early pain scores, and urinary catheter usage, without an increase in post-operative ED visits and hospital readmissions. " 01/01/2024 - "Compliance to avoiding intraoperative urinary catheters, placing chest tubes to water seal in postanesthesia care unit, liberal chest tube removal, and postoperative multimodal pain regimen use improved after the quality review meeting (P values <0.05). " 03/01/2009 - "There was remission of pain in all cases after ureteroscopy and ureteral catheter placement. " 07/01/2022 - "The study showed that surgical evacuation of haematoma can be performed in cases of large haematoma (mean size: 9.5 cm), severe pain, distorted vulvar anatomy, and invisible urethral opening for indwelling urinary catheter. " 07/01/2015 - "The relationship between route of birth and use of continuous indwelling urinary catheters for women in labor with epidurals for pain relief needs more study."
