Material and methods: This cross sectional was conducted in Department of Urology, Sahiwal Medical College, Sahiwal from May 2018 to November 2018 over the period of 6 months. Total 200 catheterised patients (catheter in place for at least 48 hours) either male or female having age >15 years were selected. UTI was assessed in selected patients.
Results: Mean age of the catheterised patients was 59.33 ± 20.5 years. Out of 200 catheterised patients, UTI was developed in 62 (31%) patients. Most of the patients 86 (43%) belonged to age group years and UTI was significantly associated with age group. UTI was noted in 27 (20.77%) male patients and in 35 (50%) female patients. Association of UTI with gender was found statistically significant with p value 0.000. Diabetics were 30 (15%) and non-diabetics were 170 (85%). UTI was found in 19 (63.33%) diabetics and in 43 (25.29%) non-diabetics. Development of UTI was significantly associated with diabetes mellitus with p value 0.000.
Conclusion: Results of present study showed a higher number of catheterised patients with UTI. UTI was common in 3rd and 4th decade. Most of the female catheterised patients were victim of UTI as compared to Male catheterized patients. Diabetes mellitus was significantly associated with development of UTI in catheterised patients.
