MeasureTime frameDescription
Antimicrobial Efficacy Will be Measured by the Change (+/-) in Bacterial Count on the Skin 10 Minutes After a Single Application of Test Material Relative to the Baseline Bacterial Count.10 minutes after single application of test materialthe measure of antimicrobial efficacy was calculated by subtracting the 10 minute post test material application bacterial recovery from the baseline bacterial recovery.

Outcome results

Primary

Antimicrobial Efficacy Will be Measured by the Change (+/-) in Bacterial Count on the Skin 10 Minutes After a Single Application of Test Material Relative to the Baseline Bacterial Count.

the measure of antimicrobial efficacy was calculated by subtracting the 10 minute post test material application bacterial recovery from the baseline bacterial recovery.

Time frame: 10 minutes after single application of test material

Population: 27 subjects were treated with ChloraPrep on the abdomen and groin treatment sites. 26 of the 27 abdomen sites met the qualifying bacterial baseline count and were included in the analysis. 25 of the groin sites met the qualifying bacterial baseline count and were included in the analysis.

Comparison: Hypothesis: ChloraPrep will exceed 3 log 10 reduction for the groin at 10 minutes and 2 log 10 reduction for the abdomen at 10 minutes. The 70% Isopropyl Alcohol was used as a positive control. All calculations were performed after taking the base-10 logarithm of the original values. The model was a mixed model Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).95% CI: [2.66, 3.02]ANOVA
