Propensity-matched analysis of the efficacy of olanexidine gluconate versus chlorhexidine-alcohol as an antiseptic agent in thoracic esophagectomy

Takeo Fujita et al.

Summary: In this study, the efficacy of olanexidine gluconate as an antiseptic agent in thoracic esophagectomy was compared to chlorhexidine-alcohol. The results showed that olanexidine gluconate significantly reduced the incidence of surgical site infection except anastomotic leakage.

The Comparative Efficacy of Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Povidone-iodine Antiseptics for the Prevention of Infection in Clean Surgery A Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis

Ryckie G. Wade et al.

Summary: The study suggests that alcoholic formulations of 4%-5% CHG are safer and twice as effective as PVI (alcoholic or aqueous solutions) in preventing infection after clean surgery in adults.

Reducing surgical site infections in low-income and middle-income countries (FALCON): a pragmatic, multicentre, stratified, randomised controlled trial

Summary: A trial conducted in low-income and middle-income countries did not demonstrate benefits of 2% alcoholic chlorhexidine skin preparation compared with povidone-iodine, or triclosan-coated sutures compared with non-coated sutures, in preventing surgical site infections in cleancontaminated or contaminated or dirty surgical wounds. Both interventions are more costly than alternatives, and these results do not endorse routine use.

Examination of the efficacy of olanexidine gluconate for surgical site infections in colorectal cancer elective surgery

Keita Kojima et al.

Summary: The study found that olanexidine gluconate (OLG) was as effective as the conventional povidone iodine (PVP-I) for surgical site infections during colorectal cancer surgery, but significantly higher skin disorders occurred in the OLG group.

Chlorhexidine-alcohol versus povidone-iodine as preoperative skin antisepsis for prevention of surgical site infection in cesarean delivery-a pilot randomized control trial

Athokpam Lenin Luwang et al.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy of chlorhexidine-alcohol and povidone-iodine as preoperative antiseptic skin preparation for preventing surgical site infection (SSI) after cesarean delivery. The results showed that patients who received chlorhexidine-alcohol had a slightly lower rate of SSI compared to those who received povidone-iodine, but the difference was not statistically significant.
