LKY's new infection in pneumonia ICU be Urinary Track Infection

[Sammyboy RSS Feed]

An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

In the ICU for pneumonia, most patients will get Urinary Track Infections because ICU poke a tube called catheter into the penis hole and push inside until it's Ballon inflated in bladder using saline and syringe.






The catheter drains Urine basically into a plastic bag via a transparent tube extended from catheter. Bag hangs below the ICU bed. Urine sample collection from that bag for lab tests.






The color of urine goes redish cloudy milky whitening sometimes, when there is Urinary Track Infection, or even blood in urine, this is most common after being in the ICU for weeks. The catheter needs to be changed frequency in order to reduce and prevent infections. SGH failed to prevent this, that's why LKY got this new infection.

Why? Most likely SGH dare not bully LKY's bird by poking it and changing catheter too often.

:D
