Pivodine™ Scrub Microbicide Solution, Antiseptic. Helps to reduce bacteria that can potentially cause skin infection. Significantly reduces the number of microorganisms on the hands and forearms prior to surgery or patient care. Povidone Iodine 7.5% Scrub is equivalent to 0.75% titratable iodine.
SURGICAL HAND SCRUB: Wet hands with water. Spread approximately 5 mL (1 teaspoonful) of scrub over both hands and forearms. Without adding water, scrub thoroughly for 2˝ to 3 minutes. Use a sponge, if desired. Clean thoroughly under fingernails. Add a small amount of water and develop copious suds. Rinse thoroughly under running water. Repeat entire procedure using another 5 mL of scrub.
ANTISEPTIC HAND WASH: Wet hands with water and pour approximately 5 mL (1 teaspoonful) of scrub on hands. Rub hands vigorously together for at least 15 seconds, covering all surfaces. Rinse and dry with a disposable towel.
PREOPERATIVE SKIN PREPARATION: After the surgical area is clipped, wet with water. Apply scrub (1 mL is sufficient to cover an area of 20 to 30 square inches), develop lather, and scrub thoroughly for approximately 5 minutes. Rinse using sterile gauze saturated with water. The area may then be painted with VetOne® Pivodine Solution and allowed to dry.
