Study Summary
The goal of this study is to determine the superiority of surgical scrub preparations in total knee arthroplasty based on the bacterial counts present on the skin surface and in the deep joint tissues. These counts will be obtained by culturing the skin prior to any scrub preparation, post preparation after the application of the sterile drapes, deep joint tissue sample prior to wound closure, and immediately post wound closure. This study will provide an assessment of the management of sterility by comparing quantitative and qualitative cultures immediately after surgical scrub preparation and the maintenance of sterility throughout the procedure. This study will enhance prior research efforts by contributing quantitative bacterial load and bacterial load within the surgical wound at closure.
Primary Outcome
Quantitative and qualitative bacterial load will be obtained by skin cultures and one deep joint tissue culture from the joint space prior to wound closure in primary and revision total knee surgeries.
