39 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if topical application on the all surface of 10% Povidone Iodine (Povi-One) in healthy participants in transitional or permanent dentition (10-17 y) prevents new white spot lesions in the maxillary anterior teeth at 1 year of follow-up. Researchers will compare Povi-One to a placebo to see if Povi-One works to prevent new white spot lesions. It will also learn about the safety of topical 10% Povidone Iodine. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does Povi-One prevent the development of any white spot lesion on the surface of maxillary anterior teeth? 2. Does Povi-One lower the probability of any International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) score greater than 0 and mean modified Löe-Silness Gingival Index (GI) in the intervention group? Researchers will 1. Score GI without cleaning participants teeth, then score ICDAS of maxillary and mandibular incisors after participants brush and floss their teeth and take a photograph of maxillary 6 anterior teeth 2. Apply Povi-one (or control) at the consultation appointment before placing fixed orthodontic appliances and 3, 6, and 9 months after appliance placement Researchers will 1. Recall using Zoom 24-48 hours after the first application of Povi-One and examine the participant's mouth for oral lesions using a structured paper checklist 2. Interview the caregiver to complete a paper questionnaire on adverse effects Researchers will 1. Score GI, and then score ICDAS of maxillary and mandibular incisors in 6, 12 months after appliance placement 2. Evaluate the development of white spot lesions on maxillary central and lateral incisors in 6, and 12 months after appliance placement
This is a multicenter randomized controlled trial of 1100 patients to evaluate the superiority of combined intraoperative wound irrigation with intraoperative peritoneal lavage with dilute aqueous povidone-iodine compared to normal saline in male and female patients between the ages of 18 and 80 years old undergoing emergency laparotomies with Centers for Disease Control (CDC) class 2 and 3 wounds.
To evaluate if Iheezo's (chloroprocaine 3%) gel vehicle acts as a barrier on the ocular surface, potentially blocking the bactericidal action of povidone-iodine.
Comparing the growth of intra-operative tissue cultures of Cutibacterium Acnes after primary shoulder replacement when using a no-prep control group versus antimicrobial wound gel versus betadine applied to the skin layer after the skin incision has been made. Reducing the bacteria present in the deep tissues at the end of the surgery may prevent infections from developing in the future.
To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of 10% povidone-iodine in eliminating nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA. To determine whether a more convenient, single-dose, pre-operative 10% povidone-iodine (PI) application is effective in reducing nasal carriage of S. aureus and MRSA. We expect a statistically significant decrease in S. aureus/MRSA colonization in nasal cultures taken perioperatively after intervention in patients who received pretreatment with PI as compared to patients who received normal saline (NS).

At baseline, following oral rehabilitation in the operating room {10% (PVPI + Fluoride Varnish (FV)} will be compared to the current standard of care (Placebo + FV). Study participants will be followed for approximately 24 months post-baseline. The study interventions post-baseline will be administered at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21 months.
This study is a two-arm, randomized, 2-phase study. Phase I will be double blinded clinical trial of the safety and efficacy of an antiseptic mouthwash solution on reducing SARS-CoV-2 load in COVID 19+ adult individuals. Phase II is designed as an open label trial, and all subjects will receive the active mouthwash.
Povidone-iodine (PVP-I) is a broad-spectrum antiseptic with activity against bacteria, fungi, and viruses. It has been previously used in both intranasal preparations against Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) as well as oral preparations in in-vitro studies of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV), Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV), influenza H1N1, and rotavirus with good efficacy. This study will evaluate the efficacy of PVP-I as prophylaxis in Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19)-negative front-line health care workers, hospital patients, and community members.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 2 study in subjects 8 years of age and older who present with verruca vulgaris (common warts) and desire treatment. Subjects may have up to a total of 6 common warts located on their trunk or extremities that will be treated with study medication and followed throughout the study protocol therapy. All warts will be treated two times per day (BID) for12 weeks. Approximately 90 subjects will be enrolled in this study.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of intra-abdominal irrigation with povidone-iodine (PVI) versus usual care on the rate of 30-day postoperative intra-abdominal abscesses (IAA) and to determine the effect of PVI irrigation versus usual care on 30-day hospital length of stay(LOS) and 30-day readmissions.
This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, open label, parallel four-arm design, multi-center study to compare different intraoperative interventions in the prevention of acute PJI development.
To compare the efficacy and comfort of two FDA approved pre-injection antiseptics when used for intravitreal injections.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of punctal plugs in reducing ocular surface (eye surface) irritation after intravitreal injections prepared by povidone-iodine 5% solution.
The primary aim of this study is to see if the use of an antiseptic preparation (povidone iodine) versus cold normal saline, will decrease rates of urine contamination during the non-invasive Quick Wee (QW) collection of pediatric urine.
Determine whether the application of povidone-iodine ophthalmic solution onto the ocular surface causes a change in respiration in children undergoing strabismus surgery with general anesthesia. Hypothesis: The application of povidone-iodine ophthalmic solution to the ocular surface causes a change in respiration in children during general anesthesia prior to strabismus surgery.
Primary Hypothesis: chlorhexidine gluconate antiseptic vaginal preparation is superior to povidone-iodine vaginal preparation in decreasing the bacterial load within the vagina when prepping prior to a cesarean section.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational treatment is effective compared with placebo and PVP-Iodine in the treatment of adults and children with adenoviral conjunctivitis.
Endometritis, an infection of the uterus in the postpartum period, has been shown to complicate the postoperative course of a cesarean delivery in 6% to 27% of cases. Vaginal cleansing prior to cesarean delivery has been shown to minimize the presence of micro-organisms and risk of infection. Although povidone-iodine is the most commonly used anti-septic for surgical preparation of the vagina, it is not an ideal agent due to it's diminished efficacy in acidic vaginal pH and in the presence of blood. Chlorhexidine gluconate, on the other hand, has demonstrated superior disinfectant properties in several clinical trials, as compared to povidone iodine. In this randomized, comparator controlled, study the investigators will be comparing chlorhexidine gluconate vs povidone iodine for intrapartum vaginal preparation in women undergoing non-emergent cesarean delivery.
The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy of PVI irrigation to no irrigation for decreasing postoperative intra-abdominal abscesses in children with perforated appendicitis. Additionally, this study aims to verify the safety profile of dilute PVI for intra-abdominal irrigation.
Primary Hypothesis: chlorhexidine gluconate alcohol skin antiseptic preparation is superior to povidone-iodine scrub and paint skin antiseptic preparation for prevention of cesarean related surgical site infection.
Currently there are no published studies comparing the efficacy of Chloraprep and povidone-iodine in decreasing postoperative- wound infection in cesarean sections. However, there have been studies involving other types of surgery that have compared the efficacy of different types of preoperative cleansing agents in preventing postoperative wound infection. These studies have shown that controversy exists over which antiseptic skin preparation is the most effective for preventing postoperative surgical wound infections. The standard of care at Los Angeles County Hospital for preoperative skin antiseptic in cesarean sections is povidone- iodine 10% (betadine), however many other hospitals have made the transition to using Chloraprep. In an attempt to improve on the current standard of care, we propose a quality improvement prospective randomized study to compare the difference in postoperative wound complications with the use of povidone- iodine and Chloraprep as a preoperative antiseptic in cesarean sections. We hypothesize that Chloraprep will be better than Betadine at reducing the incidence of positive bacterial cultures following cesarean sections.
We hypothesize the application of mupirocin or povidone-iodine to the nares is equally effective in short term Staphylococcus aureus(SA)suppression. Our overall study objective is to measure the rate of deep and superficial Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) after primary hip, knee, shoulder and elbow arthroplasty surgery and primary spinal fusion surgery requiring implantation of prosthetic material, when the patient receives either nasal mupirocin or nasal povidone-iodine prior to surgery. Secondary study objectives include: 1. Measure hospital length of stay and re-admission rates in the mupirocin and povidone-iodine groups. 2. Measure adverse events related to mupirocin and povidone-iodine. 3. Measure rate of SA resistance to mupirocin.
Bacterial corneal ulcers are a leading cause of pediatric blindness in underdeveloped countries due to a lack of antibiotic availability and affordability, among other reasons. Povidone-iodine, an inexpensive and readily available broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent, may be an effective and affordable treatment for corneal ulcers, allowing preservation of sight for those afflicted with this disease.
Bacteria is occasionally present in the shoulder during shoulder arthroplasty surgery and is hypothesized to increase the risk of failure of the prosthesis. Surgiphor (sterile Povidone-Iodine) wound irrigation, is a solution used in orthopaedic surgery and other surgical fields to kill bacteria intraoperatively. The Iodine dissociates from complex and has antimicrobial properties, causing cell death of bacteria, fungi, and viruses through interactions with proteins, nucleotides, and fatty acids in the cytoplasm and cytoplasmic membrane. This study examines the use of Povidone-Iodine during primary shoulder arthroplasty.
The purpose of this study to assess the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of povidone-iodine (PVI) irrigation in perforated appendicitis, to investigate barriers and facilitators to future implementation of PVI irrigation, and to collect costs and clinical and patient-reported outcomes among patients with non-perforated appendicitis.
This is a randomized, controlled, open-label trial of effect of 10% povidone iodine intranasal antisepsis on the detection of Candida auris.
The purpose of this study is to see whether applying povidone iodine (PVI) to the noses of patients undergoing lower extremity (leg, ankle, or foot) orthopedic fixation procedures of high-energy lower extremity fractures (HELEF) will decrease the patients' risk of surgical site infections (SSI), particularly those caused by Staphylococcus aureus.
The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy \& safety of Advantage Anti-Caries Varnish for primary prevention. The objectives are: 1) To determine if Advantage Anti-Caries Varnish (test varnish) is superior to an active control varnish (5% Sodium Fluoride, no Povidone-Iodine) in the prevention of caries lesions in the primary dentition. Specifically, prevention of caries lesions in primary teeth that either are sound, have only d1 (white spots) lesions or unerupted at baseline; and 2) To document the safety of the test varnish.
Researchers know that the virus that causes COVID-19 has been found in the saliva (spit) of individuals who exhibit signs of the disease. Investigators would like to test the ability of three mouthwashes to reduce the levels of this virus in participants' mouths. Investigators will ask participants to use a liquid to swish around in the mouth for 30 seconds and spit it into a collection cup. Investigators will also collect spit from participants before and after participants use the mouthwash. Although participants will have no direct benefits from the study, investigators will gain a wealth of information that would benefit patients who are at risk for COVID-19.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if using nasal irrigation, also known as nasal lavage, for 14 days after a positive test in high risk patients can reduce the severity of symptoms associated with COVID-19. Nasal lavage consists of running salt water in one nostril and out the other to get rid of germs. Nasal irrigation was done with either Betadine or baking soda to determine if adding an antimicrobial or changing the pH of the mucous helped. Hospitalization and death were compared for combined nasal irrigation groups to the CDC dataset of patients aged 50+
