1 3 Infection Prevention Solutions 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution Nothing is faster, easier or more effective. We can all make a difference.
2 Fast Not only did 3M design an applicator that is fast to activate but also filled it with a skin prepping solution that provides rapid microbial kill. In vitro A 5 log reduction of clinical isolates in 2 minutes or less* Kills % gentamicin-resistant and vancomycin-resistant Enterococci in 1 minute vs. 10 minutes required by an aqueous iodophor* In vivo Achieves a 99% microbial reduction in 2 minutes on the abdomen* *In clinical practice, however, 3M DuraPrep solution is flammable until dry (2 3 minutes on skin) Application instructions Easy Available in a self-contained, unit-dose applicator, 3M Duraprep solution s unique application process simplifies the skin prep procedure. 3M Duraprep solution saves a minimum of 5 minutes prepping time compared to an iodophor scrub and paint. Unique ease-of-use benefits include: No need for additional sponges, trays, overwraps or bottles Regulated flow of solution minimizes drips and mess Ensures an even application of prep Easy to comply to a standardized prepping procedure Unit dose which helps reduce wastage and pooling 8635C 8630C Snap or Press Hold sponge in a downward position and press down on the lever. Allow the solution to flow into the sponge. Hold sponge in a downward position and press the cap end of the applicator. Allow the solution to flow into the sponge. Paint Apply a thin, uniform coat, in a circular overlapping motion starting at the center and working outward. Do not scrub. Dry Allow to dry thoroughly on skin (approximately 2 3 minutes). As it dries, 3M DuraPrep solution changes from a shiny to a dull appearance alerting the user that the solution is no longer flammable. See back for precautions and warnings.
3 Effective 3M DuraPrep surgical solution eliminates the need for a time consuming traditional scrub by combining two proven, broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents: alcohol for fast kill and fast drying (2 3 minutes on skin), and an iodophor for persistence in a water-insoluble film. Efficacy studies have proven that 3M DuraPrep solution: Dries to a water-insoluble film that resists washing away by blood and saline. In vitro, 3M DuraPrep solution kills major pathogens in one minute.* In vivo, 3M DuraPrep solution achieves better than 99% microbial kill in just two minutes on the abdomen.* Effectively kills antibiotic-resistant bacteria (in vitro), a growing problem in hospitals. 3,4 (Note: 70% of bacteria causing nosocomial infections are resistant to at least one commonly prescribed antibiotic 5 ). Is more effective in a shorter period of time (in vitro) than the leading aqueous iodophor solution against gentamicin-resistant and vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE). Enterococci are the third leading cause of surgical wound infection according to the CDC 2. Kills methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and S. epidermidis (MRSE), in one minute (in vitro).* Enhances drape adhesion to help assure that the sterile surface is not being compromised by incise drape lift. *In clinical practice, however, 3M DuraPrep solution is flammable until dry (2 3 minutes on skin). Attention to preventing pooling is essential with any alcohol product. Enhanced Drape Adhesion Establishing and maintaining a sterile surface, via a skin prep and incise drape, is important because skin cannot be sterilized. Despite the most careful and rigorous disinfection, bacteria will grow during surgery. By definition, a skin surface covered by a sterile incise drape has less bacteria at the beginning of surgery than a skin surface that has only been disinfected. If a drape lifts, the sterile surface is lost. Instruments, gloves and sponges that come in contact with the skin surface around the wound can facilitate the migration of bacteria into the wound. 8 A study by Alexander et al. demonstrated that the infection rate was significantly higher in patients when the incise drape lifted from the skin during an operation. 9 In addition, models of bacterial wound contamination have shown that a smaller bacterial inoculum (10 2 ) is required to infect a wound with an implant than one without an implant (10 6 ). 10 Therefore, it is crucial to minimize the sources of bacterial contamination, including the skin, especially for high-risk patients. 3M DuraPrep solution is water-insoluble and resists wash-off by blood and saline. A study by Roberts et al. demonstrates that 3M DuraPrep solution significantly improves drape adhesion compared to a traditional iodophor paint and scrub. 1 3M DuraPrep solution allows the drape to adhere securely to the wound edge and helps to maintain a sterile surface throughout surgery.
4 Effective against microorganisms*, including: Acinetobacter baumannii Acinetobacter lwoffii Burkholderia cepacia Enterobacter aerogenes Enterobacter cloacae Escherichia coli Haemophilus influenzae Klebsiella oxytoca Klebsiella pneumoniae Proteus mirabilis Pseudomonas aeruginosa Serratia marcescens Gentamicin-resistant Enterococci Multi-drug-resistant Enterococcus faecalis Methicillin-resistant Corynebacterium jeikeium Enterococcus faecalis Enterococcus faecium Micrococcus luteus Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcus epidermidis Staphylococcus haemolyticus Staphylococcus hominis Staphylococcus saprophyticus Streptococcus pneumoniae Streptococcus pyogenes Candida albicans Effective against antibiotic-resistant organisms*: Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci *Based on in vitro studies More effective in maintaining low bacteria counts at 3 and 6 hours vs. a water-soluable prep Bacteria Colony Count min. aqueous iodophor scrub and paint PVP-I/IPA paint DuraPrep Solution Prep min. 2-3 min. 2 min. Post Prep 3 Hours 6 Hours Time After Application 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution resists wash-off. 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution continues to kill bacteria contacting the film for up to 12 hours 7 and maintains low bacterial counts under dressing for up to 3 days Persistence 3M DuraPrep solution, with its unique combination of alcohol, iodophor and a film-forming polymer, is water-insoluble and resists wash-away by irrigating fluids and blood. Following a blood and saline challenge on healthy volunteers, 3M DuraPrep solution was more effective than the traditional aqueous iodophor solution in suppressing bacterial growth at 3 and 6 hours. 6
5 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution For over 17 years, 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution has proven it works quickly and effectively, and is easy to use. Controlling skin bacteria can help reduce the risk of bacterial contamination of the surgical site. With rapid bacterial kill, persistent antimicrobial activity and a simplified application process, 3M DuraPrep solution assures a standard of care in patient prepping that is unsurpassed. Two ways to reduce surgical-site infection risk in one quick step. Two convenient sizes of 3M DuraPrep solution let you choose the product that matches your need and avoids excess waste in a wide variety of applications. The 8630C large-size applicator (26 ml) covers an area from neck to groin and is appropriate for procedures that include thoracic and CV, spine, total hip and knee, C-section, and major abdominal surgeries. The 8635C mid-size applicator (6 ml) covers at least an 8"x10" area, which is ideal for procedures requiring less coverage such as angiography, head and neck procedures, foot and hand procedures.
6 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution Ordering Information 3M TM DuraPrep TM Surgical Solution (0.7% available iodine, isopropyl alcohol 74% w/w) is indicated for topical use as a persistent, film-forming preoperative skin preparation with fast, broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. 3M DuraPrep film is intended to be left on the skin and will gradually wear away. Catalog Items/ Boxes/ Number Description Coverage Size box case 8630C 3M DuraPrep Applicator covers an area 26 ml 20 1 surgical solution from neck to groin; ideal for large procedures Thoracic and CV, spine, total hip and knee, C-section, major abdominal. 8635C 3M DuraPrep Applicator covers at least 6 ml 50 1 surgical solution an 8 in. x 10 in. area; ideal for mid-size procedures biopsies, foot and hand, angiography, head and neck procedures. 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution has a shelf life of two years. 3M DuraPrep Surgical Solution is latex free.
