Literature Search Method: CINAHL electronic database was searched for “interventions for preventing urinary tract infection” AND “nurse-led-initiative.” Search limits were: “full text,” “published date (2015 – 2019)”, “English language,” “research article,” “peer-reviewed,” and “the first author is a nurse.”
The purpose of this quantitative study was to implement a “nurse-led initiative of peer-to-peer teaching” to demonstrate nurses understanding and ability to follow precautions to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infections (p. 324).
