Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- MSSA/MRSA colonization in the nares [4 hours]
Subjects will undergo a swab of their nares to undergo PCR analysis to determine if they are effectively decolonized four hours after initial treatment
- MSSA/MRSA colonization as tested by PCR [24 hours]
Subjects will undergo a swab of their nares to undergo PCR analysis to determine if they are effectively decolonized four hours after initial treatment
