Measure
Index Patient Only
Only the child recently treated for a skin or soft tissue infection will undergo the decolonization regimen, which includes application of 2% Mupirocin Ointment to the anterior nares twice daily for 5 days and washing with 4% Chlorhexidine liquid soap daily for 5 days.
Household
All members of the household (over the age of 6 months) will be asked to follow the study protocol, which includes application of 2% Mupirocin Ointment to the anterior nares twice daily for 5 days and washing with 4% Chlorhexidine liquid soap daily for 5 days.

10/85 • Adverse events were collected by phone approximately 7-10 days following study enrollment. The intervention only lasted 5 days and thus all adverse events would have happened by this time.
There are more participants with data on adverse events than data on the primary outcome measure because some participants completed the follow-up phone call at 7-10 days (where adverse events were assessed) but failed to complete the 1 month follow-up visit (where primary outcome measure was assessed).
