Study Summary

Bacterial in the subdermal layer of the skin, such as in hair follicles and sweat glands, may contaminate surgical wounds. The goal of this study is to learn about povidone-iodine and its ability to prevent infections specifically in patients with scoliosis receiving a spinal fusion.

Primary Outcome

1. The skin, along the length of the planned incision 2. The subdermis before application of povidone-iodine versus control with saline 3. The subdermis after application of povidone-iodine versus control with saline) 4. The deep surgical wound after exposure 5. The deep surgical wound after all corrective maneuvers are complete, before closure
