Pre Op skin prep wipes. Help!

[ella37 455]

Anyone who used the preop wipes, can you please let me know the instructions?

I completely blanked on when I'm supposed to do them and my surgery is in the morning.

I have 2% chlorhexidine gluconate clothes

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Where are you having your surgery done?

Night before surgery, they had me shower with antibacterial soap and then use one wipe for one minute on my abdomen and pannus. The next morning, I had to do the same thing again before heading to the hospital, where I had to do it again after changing into a gown. The only real instructions were not to rub too hard because some patients rubbed skin off(!) and had to postpone surgery until it healed.
