摘要

Sir, Catheter-associated urinary tract infection is the most common nosocomial disease in catheterized patients. The first sign of this infection is symptomatic or asymptomatic bacteriuria or funguria. Funguria, fungal infection of the urinary tract, is increasing in incidence, mostly because of the increasing use of antibacterial agents and indwelling urinary catheters.
