At our little surg. center everyone has an opinion. Thanks
we just had a cholorprep inservice last week..
according to Mike.. (our Cardinal rep) scrub back and forth at the incision site for a good 30 seconds, and then move out from there like you would using beta paint...(frame or circles) no blotting or wiping, but let it dry... *and try to talk the surgeons/techs into NOT wiping it all off after the procedure.. it's effect is cumulative.. it'll keep working for like 48 hours!!!*
Would you like to comment?
