Does your surgeon require pre-surgery Hibiclens

Postby Hawkman » Sun Aug 05, 2018 6:06 pm

I am just curious how many surgeons require you to bathe twice a day for three days with Hibiclens or other such antibacterial wash prior to surgery.

I am also interested to know if some surgeons do not require this.

I was required too... was told I could use OTC antibacterial if the Hibiclens caused skin irritation. I had no problem and have since bought a OTC version at pharmacy for occasional use.

Yep I was required to shower the night before with a surgical cleanser, and then again the next morning before surgery. I had two bottles.

Yes, my directive was to use Hibiclens for three days prior to surgery.

No on both implants but I have my own protocol.
LGX 21cm .Milam 01/13/16. Horror; both service and surgical outcome. hated infrapubic installation. Kramer revision 03/01/17. 22cm Titan +1.5cm extender. Those who think their opinion is the only one that matters are a danger to themselves and others.
