  • Title: Should chlorhexidine gluconate be used in wound cleansing?
    Author: Main RC.
    Journal: J Wound Care; 2008 Mar; 17(3):112-4. PubMed ID: 18376652.
    Abstract:
    The antiseptic chlorhexidine gluconate is available as a hand scrub and, in a weaker dilution, as a wound cleanser. The former is often used in wound care, although there is little evidence to support the use of either dilution as a cleanser.
