AB Urinary  catheters  should  be  used  sparingly.  Indwelling  urethral  catheters  are  the  most  common;  suprapubic  catheters  require  a  surgical  procedure  but  have  fewer  long-term  infectious  complications  than  indwelling  urethral  catheters  after  5  days  of  use1,2  (see  Chapter  92,  “Acute  Urinary  Retention”).
