The Ann Arbor criteria for appropriate urinary catheter use in hospitalized medical patients: results obtained by using the RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method.
A 15-member multidisciplinary panel used the RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method to assess the appropriateness of using Foley catheters, intermittent straight catheters, and external condom catheters for hospitalized adults on medical services in 299 scenarios, including urinary retention, incontinence, and wounds. The panel concluded that these new appropriateness criteria can inform large-scale collaborative and bedside efforts to reduce inappropriate urinary catheter use.
