To investigate the bacterial cleanliness of tap water in a large accident and emergency (A&E) department for its possible use in the cleansing and irrigation of open traumatic wounds.
Tap water samples were collected from different areas within the department and analysed on two separate occasions for coliforms, S aureus, clostridia, pseudomonas, and beta haemolytic streptococci.
Pathogenic bacteria were not isolated from the tap water samples within the A&E department.
Tap water of drinking quality can be used to irrigate open traumatic wounds.
