Is 2% chlorhexidine gluconate in 70% isopropyl alcohol more effective at preventing central venous catheter-related infections than routinely used chlorhexidine gluconate solutions: A pilot multicenter randomized trial (ISRCTN2657745)?
There is a lack of trial evidence directly comparing 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) in alcohol with other CHG solutions for the prevention of central venous catheter–related infections in hemodialysis patients.
•
Although not statistically significant, there is a possible benefit from 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) in alcohol compared with routinely used CHG solutions.
•
Findings add to the evidence base and can be used in future meta-analyses of similar studies.
