ChloraPrep Hi-Lite Orange Skin Prep Solution is a single-use antiseptic solution used for skin preparation before a surgical or invasive procedure. It is available in a 3 mL foam applicator and contains 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) and 70% isopropyl alcohol. These ingredients work together to effectively cleanse the skin, kill bacteria, and reduce the risk of infection at the incision site. The hi-lite orange color of the solution makes it easier to identify areas that have been prepped, ensuring complete coverage and reducing the risk of missed spots. The solution is sterile, providing an aseptic environment for the procedure.
ChloraPrep Hi-Lite Orange Skin Prep Solution is effective in preventing skin infections from bacteria and other microorganisms. The solution is a combination of two active ingredients: Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) and Isopropyl Alcohol.
Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) is a broad-spectrum, anti-microbial agent that is effective against a wide range of bacteria, including those that are resistant to other types of antiseptics. It works by disrupting the cell walls of bacteria, leading to their death.
Isopropyl Alcohol is also a powerful antiseptic that works by denaturing proteins and disrupting the cell membranes of microorganisms, leading to their death.
The 3 mL foam applicators are designed to provide precise and controlled application of the solution onto the skin. They also help to evenly distribute the solution, ensuring maximum coverage and effectiveness.
Before a medical procedure, the applicator is used to apply the solution onto the skin, covering the entire area to be treated. The solution quickly dries to form a protective film on the skin, which helps to prevent the entry of microorganisms.
The orange-tinted solution of Hi-Lite also acts as a colorant, allowing healthcare professionals to easily see where the solution has been applied.
Overall, ChloraPrep Hi-Lite Orange Skin Prep Solution with 2% CHG and 70% Isopropyl Alcohol provides an efficient and effective way to prepare the skin for medical procedures, helping to reduce the risk of infection and promote better patient outcomes.
