Molecular Epidemiology of Proteus mirabilis Infections of the Catheterized Urinary Tract

1 Nov 2003

Abstract excerpt

Proteus mirabilis compromises the care of many patients undergoing long-term indwelling bladder catheterization. It forms crystalline bacterial biofilms in catheters which block the flow of urine, causing either incontinence due to leakage or painful distention of the bladder due to urinary retention. If it is not dealt with, catheter blockage can lead to pyelonephritis and septicemia. We have examined the...
