What is the purpose of surgical gown?
The fabrics used in surgical gowns belong to medical shielding fabrics, which mainly focus on barrier properties. Barrier properties include properties that prevent the penetration of liquids and microorganisms. During medical rescue, medical staff will inevitably come into contact with the blood and body fluids of patients. The blood and body fluids of patients may often carry HBV (hepatitis B virus), HCV (hepatitis C virus) and HIV (AIDS virus). pathogen.
Secondly, the surgical gown should be neat and clean during wearing and use, and it is not easy to produce dander or fine dust. The fluff and particles falling off the surface of the surgical gown are easy to carry pathogens and cause harm to patient safety; at the same time, evaluate the protective performance of the surgical gown The tensile force and abrasion resistance of the fabric should be considered. Because the rupture and wear of the clothes will cause the pathogens to come into direct contact with the skin of the medical staff, making the surgical gown lose its protective ability. In addition, the patient's blood will splash out during the operation, so the surgical gown must also have a certain adsorption function and water pressure resistance. In addition, surgical gowns should also meet other requirements such as comfort, flame retardant, and antistatic.
