Correlation between nurses’ knowledge and practices in prevention of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) with UTI incidence in ICU

BMC Nursing
Background The way of Foley insertion and required cares after that are key factors to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infection. Nurses play the main role in catheter placement and care, so their knowledge and performance are important.

Stress History Establishes a Transient Tolerant State That Shapes Antibiotic Survival Upon Resuscitation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput single‐cell analysis of resuscitating bacteria reveals a starvation‐history‐dependent transiently tolerant subpopulation that survives β$\beta$‐lactam exposure by temporarily reducing growth. Distinct from classical persisters, these actively growing yet dynamically modulated cells dominate survival across clinically relevant antibiotic
