It is associated with complications including but not limited to urinary tract infection which is the most common hospital-acquired infection. This activity describes in detail the working knowledge for urethral catheterization, which is the most commonly used method worldwide and highlights the role of an interprofessional healthcare team in improving care for patients who undergo urethral catheterization.
