Brief Summary:
The purpose of this research study is to determine if omiganan 1% gel (the investigational medication in this research study) is effective and safe when compared to chlorhexidine 2% (an FDA approved medication) for killing bacteria (germs) that live on the surface of the skin. Both of the study medications are applied topically (on the surface of the skin).
Detailed Description:
The study is comprised of 2 parts with approximately 20 subjects participating in each part.
Subjects eligible for Part 1 will have omiganan 1 % gel applied to 6 sites across the chest and/or abdomen and chlorhexidine 2% solution will be applied to 6 matching sites on the contralateral side.
Subjects eligible for Part 2 will each have omiganan 1% gel applied to 6 sites across the upper chest or abdomen.In addition,subjects in Part 2 will have 2 peripheral catheters inserted, one in each arm.One catheter insertion site will be treated with omiganan 1% gel (following treatment with isopropyl alcohol) and the other site will be treated with chlorhexidine 2%/isopropyl alcohol.
