The purpose of this pilot study was to determine the inter-rater reliability of four clinical manifestations of catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) among hospitalized adults with short-term indwelling urinary catheters using a tool developed for this purpose: the CAUTI Assessment Profile (CAP). Study participants included 30 non-pregnant English-speaking adults, recruited from 2 community hospitals. Three nurses assessed each participant for fever, suprapubic tenderness, flank tenderness, and delirium using standardized techniques. Based on the generalized kappa statistic and 95% confidence intervals, there was evidence of strong inter-rater reliability for fever (K = 1.00, 0.793 – 1.207), suprapubic tenderness (K = 0.39, 0.185 – 0.598), and delirium (K = 0.58, 0.379 – 0.792), but not for flank tenderness (K = 0.29, −0.036 – 0.617). This study provides preliminary evidence that the CAUTI Assessment Profile (CAP) can be used to consistently identify these clinical signs and symptoms of CAUTI in hospitalized adults.
