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.
