An operating room sleeve cover is a piece of surgical clothing designed to cover and protect the hands and arms of surgeons, nurses, and other members of the medical team. This cover is usually used in combination with a surgical gown, and its main purpose is to prevent direct contact with patient body fluids and reduce the risk of infections.
Features of an operating room sleeve cover include the following:
– Protection of hands and arms: The sleeve cover is designed to cover and protect the upper arms and hands to prevent the transmission of germs and infections.
– Antibacterial material: It is usually made of antimicrobial and antibacterial materials to prevent contamination with germs and infections.
– Disposable or washable: Like other operating room clothing, sleeve covers may also be disposable or washable and reusable.
– Easy to use and replace: These covers are designed to be easy to wear and replace if needed, without compromising the surgical process.
– Providing comfort to the surgeon: The sleeve covers are designed to fit comfortably on the arms while not restricting the movement of the hands and arms.
These covers are used as part of the hygiene requirements in the operating room to prevent any contamination and improve safety.
