Overview
The goal of this clinical study is to generate data on the intended use of a chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG)-impregnated antimicrobial incise drape. The study includes subjects undergoing primary hip or knee arthroplasty procedures. The study evaluates the intraoperative performance and safety of the incise drape during surgery, including assessment of contamination and operative characteristics. Participants will have a CHG-impregnated antimicrobial incise drape applied during their surgical procedure. During surgery, samples will be collected from the operative site to assess potential bacterial contamination.
Detailed description
This is a prospective, single-arm clinical study conducted in the United States in subjects undergoing primary hip or knee arthroplasty. The study evaluates the intraoperative performance and safety of a chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG)-impregnated antimicrobial incise drape used during lower extremity orthopedic surgery.
Safety and intraoperative performance outcomes will be assessed throughout the study.
Interventions
- Device 3M™ Ioban™ CHG Chlorhexidine Gluconate Incise Drape (2% w/w CHG)
A CHG-impregnated antimicrobial incise drape applied to the surgical site prior to incision during primary hip or knee arthroplasty.
Primary outcome measures
- Evaluation of the presence of contamination at the surgical site during the operative procedure. [Time frame: During surgery]
