Even those of you who don't work in hospitals know that hospitals need to be kept clean and tidy, especially in operating rooms, they need to be sterile,

So one of the first things medical workers do before they go into the operating room is put on sterile clothes,

But a lot of people can't tell the difference between a medical hand wash suit and a medical operating gown. What's the difference between the two?

Surgical Gown:

Long-sleeved robes with a small high neckline. The opening is at the back. Generally, doctors cannot wear them by themselves, so they need the assistance of nurses to wear them.

 The part of the Surgical Gown that comes into contact with the doctor's body inside is called the clean area, while the part that comes into contact with blood, body fluids, and the patient's body outside is called the contaminated area.

The general requirement of surgery is to completely isolate the polluted environment and clean environment and at the same time protect the health of both doctors and patients, so the operating garment should be tightly wrapped, and complete isolation must be achieved.

Wash the clothes:

Any medical worker entering the operating room, whether it's a doctor, a nurse, an anesthesiologist, has to wear a hand wash.

Once you step into the operating room, you have to wear hand wash clothes, and the reason why hand wash clothes are designed with short sleeves,

It is for the convenience of the staff involved in the operation to clean the hands, forearms, and upper arms.

But for doctors who need to perform direct surgery, it is not only necessary to wear the clothes, but also to wear the surgical clothes on top of the clothes to ensure that the operation is carried out smoothly.

How many kinds of operating gowns are there?

1. Traditional sterile surgical gown after opening;

2. Full cover aseptic surgical gown.

The emphasis is on sterility.No matter what kind of clothing, the purpose is to ensure that the operation can be carried out under sterile conditions.

In addition, the requirements of clinical medicine for aseptic surgical gowns also include good barrier performance and comfortability. The former can ensure that the medical staff performing the operation will not be contaminated by the patient's blood and body fluids.

The latter can make the medical staff perform the operation in a more comfortable state and improve the operation efficiency correspondingly, which is greatly beneficial for both the medical staff and the patients.
