This was a retrospective analysis of prospective data collected from a study of blood ethanol levels after the use of the alcohol-based hand sanitizer (ABHS). A total of 5 male volunteers were enrolled. Eight of the 10 total blood ethanol level measurements were drawn after skin preparation with Kendall WEBCOL Alcohol Preps (APP) containing 70% isopropyl alcohol. All had an initial and post-ABHS application blood alcohol level (BAL) drawn, for a total of 10 BAL measurements. Measurements upon completion of the study were <5 mg/dL in all 5 study participants and in each of the 10 blood draws regardless of skin preparation technique. This study demonstrates that the use of isopropyl skin prep pads is unlikely to cause significant false-positive blood ethanol levels.
这是一项对前瞻性数据的回顾性分析,这些数据来自一项关于使用含酒精洗手液(ABHS)后血液乙醇水平的研究。总共招募了5名男性志愿者。在使用含有70%异丙醇的肯德尔WEBCOL酒精擦拭巾(APP)进行皮肤准备后,进行了10次血液乙醇水平测量中的8次。所有志愿者均采集了使用ABHS前和使用后的血液酒精水平(BAL),共进行了10次BAL测量。无论采用何种皮肤准备技术,在所有5名研究参与者以及10次采血中的每一次中,研究完成时的测量结果均<5mg/dL。这项研究表明,使用异丙醇皮肤准备垫不太可能导致血液乙醇水平出现显著的假阳性。
