Closing the gap in infection prevention
At Spigot Guard, we are focused on closing this gap in infection prevention.
About Spigot Guard
Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) remain one of the most common and costly healthcare-associated infections. These infections lead to extended hospital stays, increased healthcare expenses, and serious risks to patient safety. Research shows that up to 34% of CAUTIs occur when bacteria enter through the unprotected drainage spigot of the urine collection bag — a vulnerable point in the Foley catheter system that is often overlooked.
At Spigot Guard, we are focused on closing this gap in infection prevention.
