A comparative clinical study focusing on the antimicrobial efficacies of chlorhexidine gluconate alcohol for patient skin preparations.
2012
: Comparative efficacy study data showed that skin preparations formulated with more than 0.5% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) in alcohol produced significant reductions in microbial populations at the inguinal, abdominal, and antecubital sites at each sample time (P .05). It would be reasonable to expect that a 1% CHG-ethanol skin preparation (with >0.5% CHG in alcohol) could be chosen in Japan that would perform well and have promising potential for catheter preparation/maintenance preparation with consideration for recommendation of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's guideline issued in 2011.
