Official title

Bacterial Contamination of Operative Splash Basins: Can it be Prevented?

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of adding 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate to the splash basin in reducing bacterial growth from splash basins at the end of a total joint replacement procedure. Hypothesis: The 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate solution will reduce the bacterial growth at the end of elective total joint arthroplasty cases. Null Hypothesis: There will be no difference in bacterial growth from the splash basin at the end of the case despite the addition of an antimicrobial solution.
