To compare soap-and-water body wipes and 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) body wipes to a CONTROL (no treatment) in reducing skin infections in high school wrestlers competing in weekend tournaments.
Repeated measures study evaluating a soap-and-water body wipe, a 70% IPA body wipe, and no-treatment CONTROL during 2 weekend tournaments.
High school wrestling tournaments in Minneapolis-St Paul and surrounding communities of Minnesota.
Each team was randomly assigned to use either wipe or serve as CONTROL during each tournament.
Presence of skin infections that developed the following week after a weekend tournament.
A total of 151 athletes competed in a total of 474 individual matches. Thirteen athletes tested positive afterward for skin infections. The odds of infection for the tested group compared with the CONTROL group were 0.089 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.01-0.75; P = 0.026] for the soap-and-water group and 0.44 (95% CI, 0.11-1.69; P = 0.23) for 70% IPA group.
Soap-and-water wipes seem to be more effective in reducing skin infections compared with the no-treatment group.
比较皂基洁肤湿巾和 70%异丙醇（IPA）洁肤湿巾与对照（不处理）在减少周末锦标赛中参加高中摔跤比赛的运动员皮肤感染方面的效果。
在 2 个周末锦标赛中重复测量研究评估皂基洁肤湿巾、70%IPA 洁肤湿巾和不处理对照。
明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗的高中摔跤锦标赛和明尼苏达州周围社区。
每个团队在每个锦标赛中被随机分配使用湿巾或作为对照。
周末锦标赛后一周出现的皮肤感染情况。
共有 151 名运动员参加了 474 场个人比赛。13 名运动员随后检测出皮肤感染呈阳性。与对照组相比，测试组的感染几率为 0.089（95%置信区间，0.01-0.75；P=0.026），皂基洁肤湿巾组为 0.44（95%置信区间，0.11-1.69；P=0.23），70%IPA 组。
与不处理组相比，皂基洁肤湿巾似乎更能有效减少皮肤感染。
