Common nasal swab tested to fight Drug-Resistant superbug
NCT ID NCT06282510
Summary
This study is testing whether applying a common over-the-counter antiseptic (povidone iodine) inside the nose can reduce the amount of a dangerous, drug-resistant fungus called Candida auris that people carry. The trial involves 120 patients in Chicago-area hospitals who are already colonized with the fungus. Researchers will compare those who use the nasal antiseptic for five days to those who receive no treatment, checking if it reduces the fungus on their bodies and in their rooms.
