A patient is unlikely to develop a postpartum urinary tract infection if they had a prolonged labor without an indwelling urinary catheter.
False
True
This statement is false. A prolonged labor can increase the risk of a postpartum urinary tract infection (UTI) even without the presence of an indwelling urinary catheter, although catheter use is a common risk factor. Prolonged labor can lead to urinary retention and incomplete emptying of the bladder, creating an environment conducive to bacterial growth. Additionally, frequent genital examinations during labor can introduce bacteria into the urinary tract.
