Summary

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of adding 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate to the splash basin in reducing bacterial growth from splash basins at the end of a total joint replacement procedure.

Hypothesis: The 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate solution will reduce the bacterial growth at the end of elective total joint arthroplasty cases.

Null Hypothesis: There will be no difference in bacterial growth from the splash basin at the end of the case despite the addition of an antimicrobial solution.
