ChloraPrep Helps Improve Clinical Patient Outcomes
ChloraPrep is a rapid-acting, persistent, and broad-spectrum antiseptic for a range of minor and major medical procedures. The 2% Chlorhexidine Gluconate/70% Isopropyl Alcohol formulation acts fast on a broad spectrum of bacteria, including Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and keeps fighting bacteria for at least 48 hours. Together, the formulation and applicator provide a proven system that supports infection control guidelines for helping to reduce the incidence of Blood Stream Infections and Surgical Site Infections.
The ChloraPrep Advantage
- Rapid-acting: Rapidly kills a broad spectrum of skin-dwelling microorganisms
- Persistent: Maintains antimicrobial activity for at least 48 hours
- Broad spectrum: Effective against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria including Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE), Clostridium difficile, Acineobacter, and most viruses and fungi
- Active in protein-rich biomaterials: Remains active in the presence of blood, serum, and other protein-rich biomaterials
- Aseptic technique: Patented wing design eliminates direct hand-to-patient contact, helping to reduce cross-contamination
- Friction scrub: Soft foam sponge’s gentle-friction scrub helps the solution to penetrate the first five cell layers of the epidermis where 80% of microorganisms reside
- Precise application: Non-linting tip design allows for precise application with controlled flow
- Patented: Ampule-incorporated applicator design facilitates easy activation while protecting the CHG molecule from degradation
