Official title:
Effect of Antiseptic Irrigation With 0.05% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (Irrisept) on Incidence of Cutibacterium Acnes in Shoulder Arthroplasty
A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial Comparing An Irrisept Antiseptic Irrigation With 0.05% Chlorhexidine Gluconate versus Standard of Care Prophylaxis Chlorohexidine Wipes
The purpose of this prospective randomized control trial is to access outcomes of positive culture growth of C. acnes from specimens obtained from the shoulders of patients undergoing primary shoulder arthroplasty whose intraoperative management includes Irrisept antiseptic irrigation and compare it to patients whose management includes standard of care prophylaxis wipes. ;
