Hi,
Has anyone got any information on what level gown is recommended for AGPs on patients with suspected or confirmed Covid? Is it recommended that the gown should cover your back?

Hi Leanne

CEC guide says that performing a single AGP on a suspected, probable or confirmed case in any setting recommends single use fluid resistant or isolation gowns as opposed to aprons.
These are typically are neck to knee with sleeves and cuffs on the wrists and should overlap on the back – and not separate even when the person is sitting.

I’ve attached the latest version of the CEC’s detailed information on PPE during Covid-19. Appendix A at the back has a summary table for all types of PPE recommended so maybe useful to you.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
Helen

Hi,
Thanks so much for your reply. Your attachment was very useful.
After reading, my understanding is back coverage is for surgical gowns and these are only to be used for surgical procedures? Do we wear surgical gowns for AGPs in patients with suspected or confirmed Covid.
