Abstract
Clean intermittent catheterization used to manage urinary retention can be complicated by urinary tract infection (UTI). This retrospective study describes the frequency of antibiotic-treated UTI in patients undergoing intermittent catheterization. Most patients did not have UTI; this supports findings in previous studies.
