Investigating Urinary Complications in Young Infant Surgical Patients with Indwelling Epidural Catheters: A Retrospective Cohort Study
No POUR occurred when the Foley catheter was removed before the epidural was discontinued. UTIs occurred when the Foley catheter remained after epidural discontinuation. Our findings highlight the importance of individualized assessment for urinary catheter placement and early removal in young infants receiving CEA.
