Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine which drug (chlorhexidine gluconate vs. povidone iodine) as a preoperative antisepsis in clean-contaminated abdominal surgery (liver, hepatobiliary, small or large bowel, stomach) is effective.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of patients with Surgical Site infection within 1month [within 1 month]
Check the surgical site infection (SSI) rate within one month Superficial SSI, Deep SSI, Organ Site SSI decided by physician CDC Definition in 1999 Superficial incisional infection : involving only the skin or subcutaneous tissue of the incision Deep incisional Infection : involving the deep tissues (i.e. fascial and muscle layers) Organ Space Infection : involving any part of the anatomy (i.e. organ/space), other than the incision
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Identify the infection source [within 1month]
If SSI occur, we check the infection source including types of bacteriae using culture.
- Number of patients with Drug Side effect. [Within 1 month]
We check the side effect of our drugs including chlorhexidine and povidione iodine. For example, itching sense, pruritis, ulticaria, redness, anaphylaxis
- Number of patients with the postoperative sepsis induced by wound infection [within 1 month]
Definition of Sepsis Proven infection (by culture, stain) or a clinical syndrome pathognomonic for infection (WBC, imaging finding or petechiae, purpura, or purpura fulminans) Body temperature (<36 or >38 Celsus Degree) Heart rate > 90 beats per minute Respiratory rate > 20 breaths per minute or, on blood gas, a PaCO2 less than 32 mmHg WBC count <4000 cells/mm3 or >12000 cells/mm3
