Halyard BASICS* Tri-Layer AAMI2 Isolation Gown Yellow X-Large 13961
The primary goal for a manufacturer of personal protective equipment (PPE) is to ensure the safety of both the patient and the healthcare provider. A fundamental cornerstone of this goal is breaking the infection chain. By providing extremely reliable barrier protection, the Halyard BASICS* Tri-Layer AAMI2 Isolation Gown is a critical tool towards that goal. These Halyard isolation gowns were painstakingly designed to meet the standards that have been set by AAMI (the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation) for advancing the safety and effectiveness of health technology.
AAMI created a pretty simple rating system to grade how well fluids are blocked by protective clothing like isolation gowns. In doing this clinicians/staff are able to choose the proper level of protection for their task. The levels are from 1 – 4 cover all the way from basic patient care to full on splash zones. When these PPE rules are followed the HALYARD gowns help reduce the spreading of the infection causing germs.
These gowns are AAMI Level 2 which is: Minimal to Low Fluid Barrier Protection – Used when there’s only a slight risk of fluid exposure, for minimally invasive surgical procedures such as lumps and bumps.
Additionally, effective PPE has to be evaluated on more than just its barrier properties. The HALYARD* Isolation Gowns, designed using a specialized Tri-Layer fabric, address a huge consideration for the wearer. That very important issue being comfort and confidence. By using this multi-layer design Halyard created a material that is very protective against fluids, and just as importantly is breathable and soft against the skin.
Why is comfort important? Because, in the real world a healthcare worker is able to provide better care when their equipment is comfortable. For one it is less distracting during a long process/shift. And secondly when you are confident, and feel safe that your PPE will protect you, it allows you to focus all your attention on the patient.
So a good isolation gown is much more than just a piece of clothing. It’s a fundamental piece in the goal to keep everyone in the healthcare world healthy and safe.
