Picot question

Surgical site infection (SSI) rates have increased significantly at your hospital. As the unit manager, you have been tasked with reviewing the literature and making subsequent recommendations to determine if a chlorhexidine/alcohol combination skin scrub prior to surgery will decrease your SSI rates as compared to your current practice of betadine skin scrub. 

For this assignment:

• Create a PICOT question based on the information above. Possible question guides can be found here. 
• Research your PICOT question using at least 4 peer-reviewed journals. Sources should be less than 5 years old.
• Create an APA-formatted annotated bibliography of the references you used to research your PICOT question. Use this template.
• Create your PICOT question on a Word document and an annotated bibliography on the provided template. Submit both documents in a single upload.
