“…The persistent inhibition and bactericidal activity of PI on pathogens (e.g. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) [51,55,56] may also be a contributing factor for commensals to thrive, compete for colonization [12,53] and maintain diversity. As such, harmful invaders may be contained by commensals from spreading to other body sites [57] especially during surgery.…”

Introduction The composition of the nasal microbiota in surgical patients in the context of general anesthesia and nasal povidone-iodine decolonization is unknown. The purpose of this quality improvement study was to determine: (i) if general anesthesia is associated with changes in the nasal microbiota of surgery patients and (ii) if preoperative intranasal povidone-iodine decolonization is associated with changes in the nasal microbiota of surgery patients. Materials and methods One hundred and fifty-one ambulatory patients presenting for surgery were enrolled in a quality improvement study by convenience sampling. Pre- and post-surgery nasal samples were collected from patients in the no intranasal decolonization group (control group, n = 54). Pre-decolonization nasal samples were collected from the preoperative intranasal povidone-iodine decolonization group (povidone-iodine group, n = 97). Intranasal povidone-iodine was administered immediately prior to surgery and continued for 20 minutes before patients proceeded for surgery. Post-nasal samples were then collected. General anesthesia was administered to both groups. DNA from the samples was extracted for 16S rRNA sequencing on an Illumina MiSeq. Results In the control group, there was no evidence of change in bacterial diversity between pre- and post-surgery samples. In the povidone-iodine group, nasal bacterial diversity was greater in post-surgery, relative to pre-surgery (Shannon’s Diversity Index (P = 0.038), Chao’s richness estimate (P = 0.02) and Inverse Simpson index (P = 0.027). Among all the genera, only the relative abundance of the genus Staphylococcus trended towards a decrease in patients after application (FDR adjusted P = 0.06). Abundant genera common to both povidone-iodine and control groups included Staphylococcus, Bradyrhizobium, Corynebacterium, Dolosigranulum, Lactobacillus, and Moraxella. Conclusions We found general anesthesia was not associated with changes in the nasal microbiota. Povidone-iodine treatment was associated with nasal microbial diversity and decreased abundance of Staphylococcus. Future studies should examine the nasal microbiota structure and function longitudinally in surgical patients receiving intranasal povidone-iodine.
