Surgeon's Apron

Surgeon's aprons are a type of protective garment worn by surgeons during surgical procedures. They are part of the supply class "Hospital And Surgical Clothing And Related Special Purpose Items" in the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies."

Surgeon's aprons are designed to provide a barrier between the surgeon's clothing and the patient's surgical site, helping to prevent the spread of bacteria and other contaminants. They are typically made of a fluid-resistant material, such as polyester or polypropylene, to protect against splashes and spills.

These aprons are usually disposable and are available in various sizes to ensure a proper fit. They often feature adjustable ties or straps to secure the apron around the surgeon's waist and neck.

Surgeon's aprons are an essential component of personal protective equipment (PPE) in the healthcare setting, helping to maintain a sterile environment during surgical procedures and reduce the risk of infection for both the surgeon and the patient.
