Precautionary measures must be put in place in order to avoid infection. A simple prevention method to avoid contamination is to cleanse the skin prior to creating a break or puncture or making an incision in the skin. Cleaning the skin with alcohol prep pads prior to creating an opening is a small maneuver, but can prove to be a life-saving step in the prevention of infections. It is important, when purchasing and using alcohol prep pads, to be aware of their proper function. Unlike wound cleansers, alcohol prep pads should never be used on open cuts, scrapes and grazes.
