Under Short Peripheral and Midline Catheters, D states to "Perform skin antisepsis using the preferred skin antiseptic agent of >5% chlorhexidine in alcohol solution". Is this a typo? Under CVADS and Arterial Catheters in the same section, it says to use "> 0.5 %" All of our CHG preps are 2%.
Yes this is one of the 2 print errors. Please use the corrected copy. Lynn
