But not all preps perform the same during surgery. Preps need to stay on the skin to remain effective. Preps can be removed during surgery by saline irrigation, dabbing with sponges or gauze, or contact with bodily fluids.

Resisting removal during surgery 3M™ DuraPrep™ Surgical Solution (Iodine Povacrylex [0.7% available iodine] and Isopropyl Alcohol, 74% w/w) Patient Preoperative Skin Preparation was scientifically formulated to protect the prep from removal during surgery. It contains 3M™ Prep Protection Film, which" 344 Prep dries to form a persistent and durable layer of protection on the patient's skin. Protection Asa result, a study showed that 3M DuraPrep surgical solution is more resistant to removal Film by saline-soaked gauze than ChloraPrep™ Skin Prep. In fact, the same study showed that 3M.

See study for deta Reducing incise drape lift Incise drape lift at the edge of an incision can allow bacteria to migrate into the surgical wound. In fact, in one study drape lift was associated with a six-fold increase in SSI? Some skin preps, such as ChloraPrep” Skin Prep, can lead to increased drape lift. The 3M Prep Protection Film in 3M DuraPrep surgical solution acts as a primer that helps a drape stick to the patient's skin to protect against incise drape lift. = fe] fe] . ssi% Help lower the risk of infection (GhloraPrep™ 8.2 Skin Prep In a sequential implementation study on the effect of preoperative preps on infection rate, it was observed that surgeries using lodophor-based a8 iodophor-based surgical preps (including ‘surgical preps o p= 001 DuraPrep surgical solution) had a significantly lower SSI rate than surgeries using ChloraPrep™ ‘SSI rate by prep received, ‘Skin Prep. N=3,209 general surgeries Preps alone are not enough ‘While skin prep antiseptics reduce microbes, they work primarily on the skin surface, not in the deeper layers of the skin. Chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG), in skin preps, for example, does not penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin. Below a depth of 300 microns, CHG concentration may not be effective for kiling bacteria.® Without additional protection, residual bacteria on the skin’s surface and bacteria that migrate from the hair follicles can be picked up by items that touch the skin and transferred into the incision, increasing the patient's risk of infection.

Use an incise drape An incise drape creates a physical barrier to prevent objects like instruments, gloves and sponges from coming into contact with the patient's skin, reducing the risk of contamination that could cause a costly and potentially devastating SSI. In a recent ex vivo study on human skin, the iodine in 3M™ loban" 2 Antimicrobial Incise Drape was shown to be present at concentrations effective against MRSA at a depth of 1,000 microns, in the deeper layers of the skin, where hair follicles are present’ 3M™ loban™ 2 Antimicrobial Incise Drape creates a sterile barrier, and e from the drape has been shown to be present in the deeper skin layers.” J ee fe ot re é ind 1000pm Help lower SSI risk and costs Bejko study results® In a study published in 2015, 3M™ loban™ 2 Antimicrobial Incise Drape ‘was associated with lower SSI risk and reduced cost when compared to a non-antimicrobial incise drape in cardiac surgery.

Using a sterile surface to fight SSIs The tisk of SSI is a real — and devastating — possibility for every surgical patient. Using an effective prep along with an antimicrobial incise drape reduces bacterial load and creates a sterile surface to minimize wound contamination. Sterile Surfa INCISE ‘Drapes 3M™ loban™ 2 Antimicrobial Incise Drapes Because skin cannot be sterilized, the use of an incise drape helps reduce the risk of wound contamination. Only a drape does what a drape does. ‘Skin surface that has been prepped has. only been disinfected, not sterilized. Patient Pre-operative preps are not enough. You need a drape. By definition, a skin surface covered by a sterile incise drape creates a sterile barrier atthe beginning of surgery, whereas a skin surface that has been repped has only been disinfected, not sterilized. ‘Skin preps cannot completely eradicate bacteria ‘Skin preps are vulnerable to removal or neutralization during surgery by blood, exudate and irigation fluids * Bacterial regeneration occurs continuously on the skin even after prepping Epidermal Cells => Incise Drape Prep + Fig. 15 - Incise Drape/Bacterial Regeneration Stops at the Incise Drape/Bacterial Regeneration Emerges to the Skin's Surface 20 Drape lift has been associated with a six-fold increase in surgical site infection.’ A drape’s barrier is only effective when the drape is securely adhered to the patient's skin all the way to the incision site.
