Retrospective Independent Safety Review of Closed Irrisept Study

"Irrisept® is a manual, self-contained irrigation device designed for wound cleansing and irrigation. The solution is 0.05% Chlorhexidine Gluconate (CHG) in sterile water for irrigation, USP (99.95%). Irrisept contents include the solution, a 450 mL bottle, and the Irriprobe applicator. Irrisept is a manual, self-contained irrigation device that can produce 7-8 psi of pressure for effective wound cleansing and irrigation. The user squeezes the bottle to create streams of solution and directs the fluid from the applicator onto a wound. The mechanical action of the streams of fluid being applied over a wound removes particulates and debris.~Subjects randomized to Irrisept on study protocol IRR-CT-901-2013-01 used the device, per the provided Instructions for Use. Those randomized to SoC received routine care, per the discretion of the investigator, and in accordance with the institution's guidelines."

"Subjects randomized to SoC on study protocol IRR-CT-901-2013-01 used any SoC type, per the investigator's discretion. SoC types were not standardized. Sites recorded SoC information as free text. The following were recorded as SoC types: Saline (recorded as normal, warm and/or sterile saline or saline solution); Sodium Chloride (recorded as sodium chloride (NACL) or NACL 0.9%); SoC; Irrisept (recorded as normal saline \& Irrisept and Irrisept); Chloraprep; Gentamicin \& saline; unknown; and none."
