Course Access
Good morning
I would like to know from those facilities who currently uses 70% Isopropyl alcohol v/v in 0.5% to 1% Chlorhexidine, and are moving towards or have now changed to using 2% Chlorhexidine in alcohol specifically for insertion of an Peripheral IVC.
I am aware of the current recommendations surrounding this but would like others comments on this matter.
regards
