Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol. 2013 Oct;34(10):1099-101

Authors: Kiyoshi-Teo H, Krein SL, Saint S

Abstract
We introduce a mindful evidence-based practice model to operationalize mindfulness to improve bedside infection prevention practices. Using catheter-associated urinary tract infection prevention as an example, we illustrate how clinicians can be more mindful about appropriate catheter indications and timely catheter removal.
