The Surgical Prep Solution is a 10% Povidone-Iodine (PVP-I) solution available in a 16-ounce container. PVP-I is a chemical complex of iodine that exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties, making it suitable for preoperative skin preparation.

This solution is specifically formulated to reduce the skin's microbial count, helping minimize the risk of infections during surgical procedures. The 10% concentration indicates the strength of PVP-I in the solution.

The 16-ounce size provides a sufficient quantity for thorough skin preparation before surgery. Surgical prep solutions like this one are commonly used to disinfect the skin at the surgical site, reducing the likelihood of contamination.

Healthcare professionals often apply PVP-I solutions as part of the preoperative protocol to maintain a sterile environment during surgeries. The broad-spectrum antimicrobial action of PVP-I makes it effective against bacteria, viruses, and fungi. It's important to follow recommended guidelines for usage to ensure optimal effectiveness and safety.
