Trial Outcomes & Findings for ProvodineTM Decreases Hand Contamination (NCT NCT04023682)

NCT ID: NCT04023682

Last Updated: 2021-08-02

Results Overview

Each subject of the study will serve as their own controls and a comparison will be made between the control phase of the study and the intervention phase of the study. Control portion of the study-usual hand hygiene practice but prior to the anesthesiologist's first case of the day, bag broth cultures will be obtained and the number of CFU's will be counted (T1).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Average of 1 day

During the intervention period, a bag broth culture was performed immediately after the anesthesiologist enter the operating suite. Provodine was applied to the participant's hands, rubbed into his/her skin, washed hands, and dried with a sterile towel. After this a second bag broth culture was obtained.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Average of 1 day

After the first surgical case for the day, a bag broth culture was collected (T2) during the control phase from each individual anesthesia provider.
