Abstract:
ABSTRACT Aims To compare the antibacterial effects of various root canal irrigants against E.faecalis. Irrigants tested were 5.25% NaOCl, 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate, and 0.2% cetrimide individually and combined. Materials and methods Root canal preparation was performed on 120 extracted permanent maxillary central and lateral incisor teeth. Following root canal preparation, apical foramina were sealed with epoxy resin to prevent bacterial leakage. The root canals were then contaminated with Enterococcus faecalis. After incubation, the contaminated roots were divided into four groups of 30 each. 2 mm of irrigant was delivered which remained in the canal for 10 minutes. The canals were then irrigated with 1 ml saline solution and with size 45 sterile paper point bacteria were sampled. The growth of E. faecalis which occurred in the tubes was inoculated onto blood agar plates. Statistical analysis Difference between the antibacterial efficacies of irrigants was evaluated statistically using chi-square test. Results There was no significant difference between the antibacterial efficacies of 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate alone and 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate with 0.2% cetrimide, but both had a significantly lower antibacterial effect than 5.25% sodium hypochlorite and 5.25% sodium hypochlorite with 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate. This difference was statistically significant. Conclusions Within limitations of this study, it was concluded that the 5.25% sodium hypochlorite and 5.25% sodium hypochlorite with 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate had a higher antibacterial effect than 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate alone and 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate with cetrimide. There was no significant difference between the antibacterial efficacies of 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate alone and 0.25% chlorhexidine with certrimide.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTBackground: Streptococcus mutans is plaque-forming initiator bacteria. Plaque on the surface base of denture can cause color changing, bad breath, inflammation, and infection called denture stomatitis. Denture hygiene must be maintained by denture soaking in 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate. However, 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconatethat used incessantly can cause side effects such as the changing of denture color and the fading of denture base pigmentation. The ironwood stem bark extract can be an alternative for denture cleanser material. Objectives: To analyze the effect of ironwood stem bark extract on the growth of Streptococcus mutans on heat cured type acrylic resin denture plate. Methods: True experimental laboratories research was used with post test only control group design using 9 treatment groups which are 5%, 10%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100% concentration of ironwood stem bark extract, 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate and aquadest. The treatment was performed with 3 times repetition resulting in 27 total samples. Antibacterial activity was measured by calculating the bacteria colony number. Results: The 5% and 10% concentration of ironwood stem bark extract were effective in reducing Streptococcus mutans with30.3 CFU/ml and 10.3 CFU/ml average colony number. The ironwood stem bark extracts with 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100% concentration are effective and equivalent to 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconate against Streptococcus mutans with 0 CFU/ml average value. Conclusion: The 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100% concentration of ironwood stem bark extract is equally effective as 0.2% chlorhexidine gluconatein killing Streptococcus mutans,exhibiting potential to be an alternative for denture cleanser material.Keyword: 0.2% Chlorhexidine gluconate, ironwood stem bark extract, acrylic resin denture plate heat cured type, Streptococcus mutans.

Abstract:
Aims and Objectives: Ventilator-associated pneumonia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The aim of this pilot study was to determine the effectiveness of oral care with both tooth brushing and 0.2 per cent chlor-hexidine gluconate compared to 0.2 per cent chlorhexidine gluconate alone for the intubated patient in an intensive care unit (ICU). Materials and Methods: Patient screening was done over a period of two months. After taking informed consent, those ICU patients were divided into two groups. Only nine subjects were enrolled. During the study, the experimental group (N = 4) got oral care that consisted of both tooth brushing and 0.2 per cent chlorhexidine gluconate thrice a day. The control group got oral care with 0.2 per cent chlorhexidine gluconate alone thrice a day. The data were analysed by IBM statistical software SPPS, version 24. Results: Preliminary results suggest that the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia in intubated patients can be reduced by maintaining thrice-daily oral care involving both tooth brushing and 0.2 per cent chlorhexidine gluconate. Conclusion: Thrice-daily oral care consisted of both tooth brushing and 0.2 per cent chlorhexidine gluconate might be a promise as a ventilator-associated pneumonia-reduction strategy in ICU. Furthermore, more studies are required for its application widely.

Newly developed and commercial dental resins which are commonly used nowadays have to be tested for their antimicrobial susceptibility. The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of a titanium oxide (TiO2) nano-composite which was prepared with different antibacterial substances and used as restoratives in dentistry to combat certain selected bacteria that are considered the principle causes of some tooth diseases, for example, tooth decay and to prevent unsuccessful dental restoration. The TiO2 nano-composite was prepared and divided into four groups: The first group was an untreated TiO2 nano-composite. The second group was silane-treated TiO2 nano-composite. The third group was treated TiO2 nano-composite which was combined with chlorhexidine gluconate (CHxG). The fourth group was treated TiO2 nano-composite which was combined with benzalkonium chloride (BzCl). Five of the selected bacteria were grown overnight in Petri dishes. Four of them, namely, Escherichia coli (E. coli) ATCC 11775, Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) ATCC 12600, Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) ATCC 29212, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) ATCC 10145, were grown on Müller-Hinton Agar (MHA). Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) ATCC 25175 was grown on Brain Heart Infusion (BHI) agar. All these bacteria were tested against the TiO2 nano-composite, and incubated for 24 hours at 37°C, except S. mutans, which was incubated separately and exposed to CO2. It was placed into a CO2 water-jacketed incubator in an atmosphere of 5% CO2 for 24 hours at 37°C. The obtained results showed that neither of the groups of TiO2 nano-composites, (untreated TiO2 nano-composite and treated TiO2 nano-composite) exhibited antimicrobial activity against the pathogens. Only preparations of TiO2 nano-composites at a concentration of 3 %m/m of both CHxG and BzCl showed antimicrobial activity against S. aureus. Antimicrobial activity against S. mutans, E. coli, P. aeruginosa, E. faecalis and S. aureus, were only realized at a concentration of 10 %m/m for both CHxG and BzCl..

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine whether chlorhexidine gluconate (0.12%), used as an endodontic irrigating solution would affect the apical seal of three root canal cements. One hundred extracted human single-canal teeth were divided into 9 experimental groups of 10 teeth each, in addition to a positive and negative control group of 5 teeth each. The teeth were decoronated at the level of the cementoenamel junction, accessed, instrumented to a Master Apical File #50, irrigated with either sterile saline, 5.25% NaOCl or 0.12% chlorhexidine gluconate, and dried using paper points. Obturation was accomplished using lateral condensation and one of three endodontic sealers: Roth's 811, AH26, or Sealapex. Post-obturation apical leakage was measured at 270- and 360-day observation periods using the fluid filtration method. Using the mixed-model repeated-measures ANOVA test with Tukey's HSD multiple comparison procedure, the results showed the saline-Sealapex combination had significantly more leakage (p<0.05) than either the Peridex-Sealapex or saline-Roth's combinations at 270 days. No other significant differences were noted between any sealer-irrigant combination at 270 days. The saline-Sealapex combination had significantly more leakage than the saline-Roth's combination at 360 days. No other significant differences were noted at 360 days. Under the conditions of this study, chlorhexidine gluconate irrigant did not adversely affect the apical seal of three root canal cements at 270 and 360 days.

Abstract:
Surgical site infection not only brings morbidity and mortality to patients, but it also bring substantial financial burden to the hospital and the healthcare system. To minimize the clinical consequences of surgical site infection, it is crucial that all appropriate measures for reduction of surgical site infection should be implemented. Since patient’s skin is a potential source of pathogens, normal skin flora is a common cause of surgical site infections. Preoperative skin disinfection of the surgical site with an antiseptic agent is an effective method to remove the soil and transient organisms from the skin. Currently, there are different skin antiseptics available and the most commonly used agents are povidone iodine and chlorhexidine gluconate. Although povidone iodine has a long-standing recommendation and it is widely used in various surgical procedures, it has several limitations. On the other hand, there is an increasing interest of the use of chlorhexidine in indwelling catheter placement and care, surgical hand scrubbing, as well as wound dressing. In view of this, there is a potential of replacing povidone iodine by chlorhexidine as preoperative skin antiseptic agent. As there is no existing guideline supportingthis innovative movement, this dissertation aimed to review the currently available evidence on preoperative skin preparation and to develop an evidence-based guideline of using chlorhexidine in preoperative skin preparation for reducing surgical site infection in patients undergoing general surgery. Five randomized controlled studies were identified from MEDLINE, CINAHL and PUBMED and evaluated by a critical appraisal tool, the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network. All studies reported that preoperative skin preparation with chlorhexidine is more effective than the use of povidone iodine in reducing surgical site infection. An evidence-based guideline is developed according to the guideline development process from the Scottish Intercollegiate Guideline Network. Patient characteristics, local clinical setting, organizational infrastructure and staff competency is congruent with the proposed innovation. The new protocol not only can minimize the risk of postoperative surgical site infection but also save costs. The cost-benefit analysis showed that the new protocol can help to save $675,552 to $1,097,772 (HK dollars) in six-month period after implementation. To facilitate a more comprehensive plan in actual implementation of the proposed guideline, stakeholders at administrative, managerial, and operational levels would be invited to take part in the 12-week pilot test. Surgical site infection, staff satisfaction and compliance, as well as cost and benefit ratio of the guideline would be measured in the evaluation plan. The refined guidelines would then be implemented for one year. The effectiveness of the guideline would be determined by reduction in postoperative surgical site infection, increase in staff knowledge and satisfaction, and the overall expenditure.

Abstract:
Central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) are one of the most fatal types of healthcare associated infections (HAIs) and their economic impact is significant. Although some studies have found no signification reduction in CLABSI rates with chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) bathing; good evidence exists to support the use of CHG bathing as an intervention to reduce CLABSIs (Bleasdale et al., 2007; Climo et al., 2009; Climo et al., 2013; Montecalvo et al., 2012). CHG bathing performance may influence the effectiveness of the CHG bathing protocol. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a targeted educational approach involving simulation on the delivery by nursing assistants of a CHG bathing protocol. The study aims were (1) to compare the effectiveness of removal of simulated skin microbes by nursing assistants who receive training for a CHG bathing protocol with simulation training to simulated skin microbe removal by nursing assistants who receive training for a CHG bathing protocol without simulation training and (2) to examine the influence of a demographic factor, years of practice as a nursing assistant on the percentage of simulated microbes present following performance of bathing. Thirty nursing assitant volunteered for this study and were randomized to either the intervention group (training for a 2% CHG cloth bathing protocol with simulation training) or the control group (training for a 2% CHG cloth bathing protocol without simulation training). For aim (1) an independent t-test (inferential tests of group differences) was used to examine if there was any difference between the intervention group and the control group on the percentage of microbes remaining on the mannequin post bathing. For aim (2) a Pearson correlation was computed to assess the relationship between years of practice as a nursing assistant and the percentage of microbes remaining post bathing. Results showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups on demographc factors. For aim (1) the t-test revealed a statistically significant (p < .001) difference between the intervention group and the control group on the percentage of simulated microbes remaining on the mannequin post bathing. For aim (2) there was no correlation between the years of practice as a nursing assistant and the amount of microbes left on the mannequin post bathing (p=.709). This study provided an innovative method of assessing the percentage of simulation microbes remaining on the mannequin and made it possible to quantitatively measure bathing performance. Monitoring the compliance with CHG bathing is an important component when evaluating the effectiveness of a CHG bathing protocol. The findings of this study suggest that simulation training was an added benefit to the nursing assistants who received it, as they performed better than those who did not receive simulation training.

Decontamination of the surface of the donor eyeballs is part of the operational norms that eye banks advocate before preservation, and antisepsis procedures are effective, ensuring greater transplantation safety. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the antiseptic effect in reducing the microbiota of the ocular globe of donors of corneas prior to enucleation, with 5% povidone-iodine (PVP-I) and 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate (GC), In the action times of 5, 10 and 15 minutes, as well as the susceptibility profile of the microbiota isolated from gentamicin. Thirty pairs of corneas received antiseptics, with PVP-I in the right eye and GC in the left, and for each time of action 10 pairs of eyeballs were used. Swabs were collected from the ocular surface before application of the solutions, after and at the time of preservation of the corneal tissue, to evaluate the reduction of the microbiota. After identification of the microbiota, an antibiogram test was performed with gentamicin. The data were computed and evaluated by Chi-square or Fisher's exact test, T-test and McNemar test paired, and the statistical significance level was 5% (p <0.05). In the second collection, after antisepsis, there was a reduction of 39,5% in the total of gram positive bacteria (G +), and of 76,5% in the gram negative (G-) bacteria, with no statistically significant difference (p = 0.183), which demonstrated that the bacterial elimination capacity of the antiseptics was similar. It was observed that, in the second collection, both were more effective for G-, with a statistically significant difference (p <0.001), than for G +, with no statistically significant difference (p = 0.494). In the third collection, after the residual effect of the antiseptics, there was a reduction of 99.1% of all the microorganisms. In the antibiogram test, 88% of the isolated microorganisms were sensitive to gentamicin. It was concluded that the use of antiseptics is essential for the effective decontamination of donated corneas prior to preservation. The residual time of the antiseptics increased the decontamination power of PVP-I and GC, being similar in reducing the microbiota of the ocular globe of the donor of corneas. Gentamycin contained in the cornea preservation medium complements the antisepsis of the donated tissues.
A descontaminação da superfície dos globos oculares doados são normas operacionais que os bancos de olhos preconizam antes da preservação e os procedimentos de antissepsia são eficazes, garantindo uma maior segurança ao transplante. O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o efeito antisséptico na redução da microbiota do globo ocular de doadores de córneas antes da enucleação, com o povidona-iodo (PVP-I) a 5% e gluconato de clorexidina (GC) a 0,05%, nos tempos de ação de 5, 10 e 15 minutos, bem como o perfil de susceptibilidade da microbiota isolada à gentamicina. Trinta pares de córneas receberam antissépticos, sendo o PVP-I no olho direito e o GC no esquerdo, e para cada tempo de ação foram utilizados 10 pares de globos oculares. Foram colhidos swabs da superfície ocular antes da aplicação das soluções, após e no momento da preservação do tecido corneano, para avaliar a redução da microbiota. Após identificação da microbiota, foi realizado teste de antibiograma com gentamicina. Os dados foram computados e avaliados pelos testes Qui-Quadrado ou Exato de Fisher, teste T e Teste McNemar pareado, e o nível de significância estatística foi (p<0,05). Com relação aos dados obtidos na segunda coleta, após o uso de antissépticos, houve uma redução de 39,5% no total de bactérias gram positivas (G+) e de 76,5% nas gram negativas (G-), não havendo diferença estatística significativa (p=0,183), sendo semelhante a capacidade de eliminação bacteriana dos antissépticos. Observa-se que, na segunda coleta, ambos foram mais eficazes para as G-, com diferença estatisticamente significativa (p<0,001), do que para as G+, sem diferença estatisticamente significativa (p=0,494). Na terceira coleta, após o efeito residual dos antissépticos, houve redução de 99,1% de todos os micro-organismos. No teste de antibiograma, 88% dos micro-organismos isolados foram sensíveis à gentamicina. Concluiu-se que o uso de antissépticos é essencial para a efetiva descontaminação das córneas doadas antes da preservação. O tempo residual dos antissépticos aumentou o poder de descontaminação do PVP-I e GC, sendo semelhantes na redução da microbiota do globo ocular do doador de córneas. A gentamicina contida no meio de preservação de córnea complementa a antissepsia dos tecidos doados.

Candida species are frequently isolated from oral mucosal surfaces of healthy individuals and is the most common genus responsible for up to 75% of all candidal infections. The most common problems associated management of oral candidiasis are antifungal drug resistance and side effects Natural medicine is an emerging field and is being explored to overcome drug resistance and to reduce side effects. Gymnemagenin (will be known as Gymnemic acid; GA) is a purified extract from Gymnema sylvestre, a slow growing, perennial, medicinal plant found in Central and Western India, Tropical Africa and Australia is regarded as one of the plants with potent antimicrobial and antifungal activity.

Abstract:
Preventing nosocomial infections is important to improve postoperative outcomes for cardiac surgery patients. The patient’s own flora is thought to be the primary source of potentially pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, decontamination is an appealing preventative strategy for reducing nosocomial infections. This study investigated the use of topical chlorhexidine gluconate for perioperative nasal and oropharyngeal decontamination in cardiac surgery patients. The intervention resulted in a significant reduction in lower respiratory tract infections, deep surgical site infections, use of nonprophylactic antibiotics, and duration of hospitalization. There was an absolute risk reduction in total nosocomial infection of 6.4%; 16 patients would have to be treated with the chlorhexidine decontamination strategy to prevent one nosocomial infection. Chlorhexidine is an advantageous antimicrobial because it has broad-spectrum coverage, is inexpensive, and is very well tolerated.
