povidone-iodine 7.5% / SEDICO - LARVOL DELTA

[VIRTUAL] Malignant pleural effusion: different treatments through countries (ERS 2021) - "The MP success rate was 75% and was similar for talc slurry and Povidone-iodine (75.8% vs 75.1%; p=0.8)... Our study demonstrates that MP is effective and well tolerated in the majority of cases. This procedure may represent an interesting alternative to surgical thorascopy which is of a common use indeveloped countries."

[VIRTUAL] Pleurodosis through drain for malignant pleural effusion : a case control study (ERS 2021) - "The MP success rate was 75% (45 patients) and was similar for talc slurry and Povidone-iodine (75.8% vs 75.1% ; p=0.8)... Our study demonstrates that MP is effective and well tolerated in the majority of cases. This procedure may represent an interesting alternative to surgical thoracoscopy."

Demonstration of the yeasticidal efficacy of povidone-iodine-based commercial antiseptic solutions against Candida auris. (PubMed, J Mycol Med) - "This study investigated the in vitro yeasticidal activity of povidone-iodine against C. auris, and compared the findings to C. albicans and C. glabrata, according to the EN standard 1275:2005. Results support the use of such commercial antiseptics in the context of colonization with this yeast."

Removal of Aerosolized Contaminants from Working Canines via a Field Wipe-Down Procedure. (PubMed, Animals (Basel)) - "Disposable, lint-free towels were saturated with one of three treatments: water, 2% chlorhexidine gluconate scrub (CHX), or 7.5% povidone-iodine scrub (PVD). Reduction was similar between CHX or water in Labradors (p = 0.86) and shepherds (p = 0.06). Effective wipe-down strategies using common veterinary cleansers should be further investigated and incorporated into decontamination practices to safeguard working canine health and prevent cross-contamination of human personnel working with these animals."
