Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male or female age ≥ 18 years old;
- Requiring indwelling 16Fr Foley catheter for at least 7 days;
- Able and willing to comply with study procedure; and,

- Planned Prophylactic use of antibiotics for CAUTI or any other infection beyond day 1 of the study (catheter implantation);
- Symptomatic UTI being treated with antibiotics (as determined by the study PI, including at least one of the following: fever, chills, headache, burning sensation, burning of urethra or genital area, blood in urine, foul smelling urine and ≥ 10,000 cfu/mL);
- Any other infection being treated with antibiotics at the time of catheter implantation;
- Subjects requiring bladder irrigation during the study (an active voiding trial in surgical subjects prior to catheter removal is allowed);
- Currently enrolled in another interventional clinical trial;
