Sheet 1: Definitions

Catheter-Associated Urinary Tract Infection (CAUTI) Validation Template As proposed in support of validation for the Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting Program for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 Payment determination. • As proposed each hospital selected for CAUTI validation is to produce a list of positive urine cultures for intensive care unit (ICU) patients. • The line list should include all final results for all positive urine cultures with >= 10³ colony-forming units (CFUs)/ml collected during an ICU stay. • For each patient confirm the patient had: 1) An ICU admission during this hospital stay; and 2) A positive urine culture collected during the ICU stay with >= 10³ CFU/ml. (Exclude positive cultures with more than 2 organisms present even if results are >=10³ CFU/ml.)
