Clinical Trial Summary

The development of surgical site infections (SSI) in clean-contaminated surgery is regarded as being preventable. Known to be effective in the prevention of surgical site infection are the adequate sterilization of the surgical instruments, asepsis during operation, antibiotic prophylaxis where indicated, and certainly the preparation of the skin at the incision site. During the last decades the use of alcoholic chlorhexidine has replaced povidone iodine for preoperative skin preparation. In order to improve the way alcoholic chlorhexidine is applied, pharmaceutical industry has developed new applicators.

This randomized study was conducted to know the surgeons' satisfaction within the use of two tinted applicators: Chloraprep® and Nex Clorex 2%
