Hi Lindy
our generic branded liquid solution seems to now also have the ‘hospital grade disinfectant and the surface cleaning” directions, however our single use swabs and packets do not. Has anyone contacted the manufacturer yet?
regards

Dear Colleagues
Just wondering if anyone; facilities/ service had been using 2%CHG in 70% ETOH (tinted pink /red/blue) for skin antisepsis for their pt. s for insertions of CVADs or preop skin prep? and if so were you notified of the change to the physical labelling from it previously being labelled for use as skin prep – use as a preoperative treatment of unbroken skin to it at some date being relabelled as a hospital grade disinfectant with the direction of apply to hard surfaces e.g walls and floors
Can I ask then if you were aware can I ask are you still using it as a skin antisepsis even with the label change or have you stopped using for this purpose and if so what are you now using instead?
Any advice or feedback would be grateful
Many thanks
Regards
Lindy
