Hi Marija,

Do you also apply this regime to patients with MRSA history or does it differ?

Kind regards,

Infection Control Clinical Nurse

Hi Liz,

We only undertake perioperative antiseptic body wash the day before and the day of surgery.
Skin prep is undertaken in theatre with 2% chlorhexidine and 70% alcohol at the time of surgery.

Hello Everyone

Can those who undertake orthopaedic surgery tell me whether you currently undertake Orthopaedic pre-op skin prep on wards pre theatre. Apparently our sterile drape supplies are restricted.
I was under the impression that this an older discarded practice other than pre-op shower and that skin prep is only conducted immediately pre-op.
Would appreciate your input

With Thanks
