Article: Patient Skin Preps – "Fighting Infection Before the First Incision"
The first line of defense against infection in the human body is the epidermis. Unfortunately, this is generally the first thing that is compromised during a surgical procedure. Naturally, if a surgeon is to do his job effectively, if at all, that is a risk he is going to have to take. Fortunately, there are a number of antiseptics that can help manage that risk before the initial incision is even made.
