1. Calculating Data In your facility, there are 3 CAUTIs identified during the month of March. From your data collection efforts, you have identified 3,441 resident days and 186 (indwelling urinary) catheter days. For the month of March… What is the CAUTI incidence rate? What is the CAUTI population rate? What is the catheter utilization rate? 1 CAUTI incidence rate per 1,000 catheter-days Population CAUTI rate per 10,000 resident-days urinary catheter days X 1000 CAUTI rate = # CAUTIs identified resident days CAUTI rate = X 10,000 # CAUTIs identified Urinary catheter utilization ratio (calculated monthly) urinary catheter days resident days urinary catheter utilization ratio =

2. CAUTI Incidence Rate In your facility, there are 3 CAUTIs identified during the month of March. From your data collection efforts, you have identified 3,441 resident days and 186 (indwelling urinary) catheter days. 2 CAUTI incidence rate per 1,000 catheter-days urinary catheter days X 1,000 CAUTI rate = # CAUTIs identified 186 X 1,000 CAUTI rate = 3 CAUTI rate =16.13

3. CAUTI Population Rate In your facility, there are 3 CAUTIs identified during the month of March. From your data collection efforts, you have identified 3,441 resident days and 186 (indwelling urinary) catheter days. 3 Population CAUTI rate per 10,000 resident-days resident days CAUTI rate = X 10,000 # CAUTIs identified 3,441 CAUTI rate = X 10,000 3 CAUTI rate =8.72

4. Catheter Utilization Ratio In your facility, there are 3 CAUTIs identified during the month of March. From your data collection efforts, you have identified 3,441 resident-days and 186 (indwelling urinary) catheter-days. 4 Urinary catheter utilization ratio (calculated monthly) urinary catheter days resident days urinary catheter utilization ratio = 186 3,441 urinary catheter utilization ratio = urinary catheter utilization ratio = 0.054
