Hi Geetha,

As the representative in WA for a manufacturer of gowns, I would suggest that there are many parts to your question.
The short answer is probably, however I would encourage you to refer to the AAMI standards, as Isolation & Surgical gown are constructed & tested differently.
Surgical gowns are AAMI level tested in what are known as Critical areas, which in simple terms means the gown may be constructed of different levels of fabric in non-critical areas.
Ultimately I would suggest contacting the manufacturer directly to discuss what you are being offered, & its ability to meet the clinical need.

Best regards,

Howard

Hi all

I have a question. I am currently overlooking at a regional campus as a IPCC. Currently, the aged care is in lockdown due to Covid19 outbreak.

I have a question about the PPE gowns that are used. The facility is supplied with surgical gowns as isolation gowns. My question is are the surgical gowns used as isolation gowns if there is no supply?

I have attached the pictures for view.

Regards
Geetha
