Study Summary
ICU patients are at risk for catheter associated urinary tract infection. Frequently patients can't tell clinicians if they need to void if the catheter is removed. If clinicians know that an accurate volume measurement s of urine volume in the bladder can be obtained when the catheter is removed, catheters could be removed earlier and more frequently and thus possibly avoid an infection. For this study, measures with ultrasound (directly visualizing the bladder to measure), bladder scanner (partially blind measure with placement of scanner over the expected bladder location on the skin) and urine catheterized volume will be obtained. The investigators also want to know if the technology is user dependent. The study will include 2 levels of nurses RN and advanced practice RN (APRN) perform the bladder scanner. An APRN and MD will conduct the ultrasound. Ultrasound is technology primarily used by physicians but APRNs are using the technology technology more frequently. After these 4 measurements, the patient's nurse will perform an intermittent straight catheterization (catheter inserted, urine drained, and catheter removed) as the gold standard comparison.
