Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Does changing the pressure applied during the ChloraPrep application impact the amount of C. acnes bacteria on the skin after one hour? Researchers will compare ChloraPrep applied at a pressure similar to a gentle wipe to ChloraPrep applied at a pressure similar to a massage to see if wash the amount of C. acnes on the skin after one hour is different.
Participants will have one shoulder washed with ChloraPrep using pressure meant to impact the dermal layer, similar to a gentle wipe, and the other shoulder washed with ChloraPrep using pressure meant to impact the subdermal layer, similar to a massage. Participants will have swabs taken of their skin before the ChloraPrep application and again one hour after application to look for the amount of C. acnes on the skin.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Randomization Option 1
Right shoulder, Test Group ; Left shoulder, Control Group
Chlorhexidine Gluconate
Test Group: the participant's shoulder skin will be treated by the study team with the standard chlorhexidine wash at lower pressure (similar to a gentle wipe) for 30 seconds Control Group: the participant's shoulder skin will be treated by the study team with the standard chlorhexidine wash at higher pressure (similar to a massage) for 30 seconds
Randomization Option 2
Right shoulder, Control Group ; Left shoulder, Test Group
Chlorhexidine Gluconate
Test Group: the participant's shoulder skin will be treated by the study team with the standard chlorhexidine wash at lower pressure (similar to a gentle wipe) for 30 seconds Control Group: the participant's shoulder skin will be treated by the study team with the standard chlorhexidine wash at higher pressure (similar to a massage) for 30 seconds
