Abstract
BACKGROUND: Chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) bathing has been shown to prevent hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) in high risk patients, including intensive care units (ICU) and peri-operative patients. All ICUs in our institution have been using CHG for daily bathing since 2009, which correlated with decreased HAI rates. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of daily CHG bathing in non-ICU inpatient units.
