Urinary Catheterization, Urinary Tract Infections
Conditions
Brief summary
The Committee of Infectiology of the French Association of Urology (CIAFU) provided, for the first time in 2020, comprehensive guidelines for ureteral stent-associated urinary tract infections (USAUTI) prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Since evidence lacked in terms of appropriate treatment, guidelines could not support systematic change of US in case of USAUTI. This study aims to evaluate whether after guidelines group patients treated for USAUTI had different occurrence of at least one relapse or recurrence than before guidelines group.
