Photodynamic therapy improves skin antisepsis as a prevention strategy in arthroplasty procedures: A pilot study [PDF]
Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy, 2020 Background: Current standard skin antisepsis to prevent surgical site infections are ineffective to eradicate all skin-colonizing bacteria. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has shown bactericidal effects in vitro, but no clinical study with improvements in ...

National Survey of Hand Antisepsis Practices [PDF]
Journal of Perioperative Practice, 2007 The findings from this study led to the development of a Trust-wide hand antisepsis protocol at Derby Hospitals NHS Acute Trust. The article, showing widespread usage of surgical scrubbing brushes, was also used to secure funding from the Association of ...

All dialysis treatments include a certain risk of infection because of the decreased immune defenses of the patients and because of dialytic techniques that increase the potential of microbial contamination. Peritoneal dialysis, and in particular continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), has a higher risk of infections of the peritoneum, but ...

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1965
The role of antibiotics in large bowel surgery was established by experimental studies indicating that antibiotics could protect a colonic anastomosis subjected to unusual stress. A number of different agents were studied to patients to determine which ones significantly altered the bacterial flora of the colon. Clinical studies were conducted with the

Use of silver as a topical antimicrobial agent has been hampered by the absence of a method of providing sustained delivery of the silver ions. One possible solution is the use of silver-coated fabrics as both wound dressings and silver-ion emitting anodes in a simple electric circuit.

Archives of Environmental Health: An International Journal, 1969
Klebsiella-Aerobacter was isolated from a 3% hexachlorophene surgical soap. The effectiveness of two surgical scrub products: hexachlorophene (Dermasurgical and pHisoHex), and povidoneiodine (Betadine) was tested in a surgical scrub procedure and compared with an anticrosscontaminant foam (Intersept).

Experiences with intestinal antisepsis
World Journal of Surgery, 1982AbstractFrom 1955 through 1964, the authors were actively engaged in experimental and clinical studies concerned with intestinal antisepsis, a form of antimicrobial prophylaxis used by the surgeon to lower the high rate of infectious complications following colorectal operations.
