Pre-operative Preparation Using 2% Chlorhexidine Cloth For Shoulder Surgery

We intend to determine how effective the use of a 2% Chlorhexidine Cloth is in terms of eliminating the bacterial load on patients undergoing shoulder surgery. We will be comparing the Chlorhexidine Cloths with a control group which will be performing an ordinary shower prior to surgery. At this time, it is standard of care to only take an ordinary shower the evening prior, and the morning of surgery.
