““

We are like every facility in the nation

trying to reduce infections: Any time we can keep a Foley

catheter from being

inserted we are more

than happy to do that.

Anything external that would provide

good security so that we can avoid skin

irritation for patients, we

would be interested. Infection Control

Preventionist (ICP)10

In a study of

42 applications of ReliaFit by

31 RNs in

20 acute-care patients,

0 urinary tract infections were reported9
