Recruiting studies
- NCT07321704Recruiting
Irrisept vs. Saline for Pilonidal Flap Surgery
This study compares two types of wound cleaning solutions used during surgery for pilonidal disease: an antiseptic called Irrisept (0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate) versus normal saline. The goal is to see if Irrisept helps prevent infection and improve healing after a flap-based closure procedure.

Comparing two antiseptics for spinal surgery wound soaking
This trial compares two common antiseptics (povidone-iodine and chlorhexidine gluconate) to see which better reduces germs in spinal surgery wounds during the operation. If you are having lumbar spine surgery, this study may help determine the best way to prevent infections.
Tainan, TaiwanAges 18 years+ - NCT07180498Recruiting
Tea tree vs chlorhexidine mouthwash after wisdom tooth removal
This study compares a tea tree oil mouthwash and a standard chlorhexidine mouthwash to see which helps better after wisdom tooth removal. It may help you heal faster and with less discomfort.

Flushing liquid during colorectal cancer surgery
This trial compares two different liquids used to flush the surgical area during colorectal cancer surgery to see which one better prevents infections. If you are having surgery for colorectal cancer, you may be able to join.
Nanchong, SichuanAges 18–85 - NCT06439953Recruiting
Irrigation solution for spinal surgery instrumentation
This trial tests a solution used to clean the surgical site during spine surgeries to see if it helps prevent infections. It is for patients having certain types of spine surgery for conditions like deformity, cancer, or trauma.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06464770Recruiting
Improving infection prevention before shoulder surgery

Seattle, WashingtonAges 18–89 - NCT07356323Recruiting
Study on antibacterial drape for hip or knee replacement
This trial tests if a special antibacterial drape reduces contamination during hip or knee replacement surgery. The drape is placed over the skin to help prevent infection.
Fishers, IndianaAges 22 years+ - NCT06126614RecruitingPhase 3
Infection prevention in joint replacement surgery
This trial tests a way to prevent infections for people getting a hip or knee replacement. It compares different methods to see which works best and may help lower your risk of infection after surgery.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06587880RecruitingPhase 4

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials studying Chlorhexidine Gluconate?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 16 recruiting studies that include Chlorhexidine Gluconate, drawn from the U.S. registry and rewritten for real people so you can see what each is testing and who it's for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a Chlorhexidine Gluconate trial?
- Each study lists its own eligibility criteria — rules about condition, age, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Is Chlorhexidine Gluconate an approved treatment?
- A drug being studied in a trial may be investigational (still being tested) or already approved and being studied for a new use. Each study page explains what phase it's in.
