First seen Apr 30, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether adding a pre-surgery scrub with alcohol and chlorhexidine soap to the usual skin cleaning can lower the number of surgical site infections in adults having elective foot or ankle surgery. About 100 participants will be split into two groups: one gets the extra scrub, the other gets standard care only. The goal is to see if the extra step reduces bacteria on the skin and prevents infections.
