Summary

This study aims to assess the efficacy of intraoperative wound irrigation with iodine-containing and chlorhexidine-containing solutions in reducing bacterial colonization during spine surgery, and to determine which solution is more effective. Additionally, we aim to evaluate any side effects associated with the use of these two antiseptic solutions for wound irrigation.

Conditions

  • Spine Infection

Interventions

DRUG

Povidone-iodine solution; chlorhexidine gluconate

Before wound closure, each group will undergo different irrigation solutions for soaking the wound for three minutes followed by rinsing with copious saline.
