Official title
Feasibility of Pre-operative Povidone Iodine Decolonization Among Orthopedic Trauma Surgery Patients To Reduce Staphylococcus Aureus Surgical Site Infections
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Many surgical site infections are caused by bacteria that is transferred from a patient's nose to their open surgical wound. Some small studies have shown that putting povidone-iodine in a patient's nose reduces this risk. This study aims to evaluate the real-world effectiveness of nasal povidone-iodine (PROFEND®) in a group of 50 patients at the University of Iowa.
