Hi guys. What does your unit use for this problem in patients. I feel like every hospital uses something different - I am curious as to what the variations are??

Thanks for any input in advance

My unit uses chlorhexidine and nystatin as standard for our transplant pts and use morphine/dilaudid for pain control
