- A disposable, basic isolation gown designed to provide a protective barrier in healthcare settings with very minimal fluid exposure, used for infection control to protect both staff and patients from cross-contamination
Uses
- General Patient Care:
- Worn by healthcare workers during routine examinations or patient-care activities when contact with blood or bodily fluids is not anticipated but basic protection is required
- Infection Control:
- Used in hospitals, clinics, and long-term care facilities to prevent the spread of contaminants
- Non-Surgical Procedures:
- Suitable for use in outpatient clinics, laboratories, and dental offices for basic barrier protection during light medical procedures
Features
- Material:
- Made from spunbond polypropylene, a lightweight, non-woven fabric that is breathable for extended wear
- Full-Back Design:
- Offers 360-degree coverage with a generous fit to ensure flexibility and mobility
- Secure Closures:
- Features neck and waist ties for easy donning and removal, along with elastic wrist cuffs to keep sleeves in place
- Universal Sizing:
- Designed as "one size fits most" to accommodate various body types
- Visual Alert:
- The bright yellow color makes it easily identifiable as an isolation gown, alerting others to the wearer's status in sensitive areas
Benefits
- Breathability and Comfort:
- The single-layer spunbond material is designed to be lightweight, reducing heat buildup for clinicians who need to wear PPE for long periods
- Cost-Effective Protection:
- As a "not-rated" (AAMI Level 1 equivalent for minimal fluid) gown, it provides an affordable solution for environments that do not require high-level fluid resistance
- Reduced Contamination Risk:
- The disposable, single-use design ensures that healthcare workers can quickly discard potentially contaminated garments, preventing cross-infection between patients
- Practical Design:
- Some versions include thumb hooks (depending on the specific lot/update) to prevent sleeves from riding up under gloves
