The retrieval results were evaluated by 2 reviewers independently. Data was extracted using modified JADAD scale.Results Nine literatures were included in the study, with low quality (0-3 points). No high quality literatures (4-7 points) were involved. Conclusions The studies on preventing CAUTI with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are at the first step. High quality literatures are seldom. Methodology studies are required to provide evidences for preventing CAUTI, especially for high risk and special patients.
