Chlorhexidine-Alcohol versus Povidone-Iodine for Surgical-Site Antisepsis.
Darouiche RO, Wall MJ Jr, Itani KM, Otterson MF, Webb AL, Carrick MM, Miller HJ, Awad SS, Crosby CT, Mosier MC, Alsharif A, Berger DH. Darouiche RO, et al. N Engl J Med. 2010 Jan 7;362(1):18-26. doi: 10.1056/NEJMoa0810988. N Engl J Med. 2010. PMID: 20054046 Free article. Clinical Trial.
We hypothesized that preoperative skin cleansing with chlorhexidine-alcohol is more protective against infection than is povidone-iodine. METHODS: We randomly assigned adults undergoing clean-contaminated surgery in six hospitals to preoperative skin preparation wit …

Comparison of topical honey and povidone iodine-based dressings for wound healing: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Zhang F, Chen Z, Su F, Zhang T. Zhang F, et al. J Wound Care. 2021 Apr 1;30(Sup4):S28-S36. doi: 10.12968/jowc.2021.30.Sup4.S28. J Wound Care. 2021. PMID: 33856925
The honey-based dressings demonstrated a medium-to-large effect in reduction of mean healing duration (Hedge's g: -0.81), length of hospital stay (-3.1) and VAS score (-1.2) as compared with the povidone iodine-based dressings. We present evidence (level 1b) in favo …

Skin antisepsis for reducing central venous catheter-related infections.
Lai NM, Lai NA, O'Riordan E, Chaiyakunapruk N, Taylor JE, Tan K. Lai NM, et al. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2016 Jul 13;7(7):CD010140. doi: 10.1002/14651858.CD010140.pub2. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2016. PMID: 27410189 Free PMC article. Review.
The most frequent comparison was chlorhexidine solution versus povidone-iodine solution (any base). There was very low quality evidence (downgraded for risk of bias and imprecision) that chlorhexidine may reduce catheter-related BSI compared with povidone- …
