Prevent CAUTIs with Advanced Bladder Scanning

Reduce unnecessary catheterization, improve patient safety, and support better clinical decisions.

  • Help reduce CAUTI risk
  • Improve nursing workflow
  • Support patient safety
  • Reduce hospital costs

The Clinical Challenge

40%

UTIs account for approximately 40% of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs).

80%

Around 80% of these infections are associated with indwelling urinary catheters.

12–25%

Of hospitalized patients receive urinary catheters, even when catheterization may not be medically necessary.

3–7%

Daily risk of UTI associated with catheter use, increasing significantly with prolonged catheterization.

Why Use a Bladder Scanner?

Bladder scanning supports evidence-based clinical decisions by helping clinicians assess bladder volume before catheterization.

  • Non-invasive bladder volume assessment
  • Help reduce unnecessary catheterization
  • Improve patient comfort
  • Support evidence-based clinical decisions
