A coated barrier fabric for use in a reusable medical product (e.g., surgical gown, surgical drape, etc.) is provided and has two woven or knitted plies. Each of the two plies are coated on one side with a non-fluorine containing polymer and retain similar comfort and feel of uncoated woven or knitted fabrics. The coated sides of the plies face each other (i.e., inwardly) in the interior of the barrier fabric. Because of the orientation of the plies, the coated sides of the plies can come into direct contact with and move freely against each other within the interior of the barrier fabric. The coating on each of the plies is protected from exterior and environmental factors, including repeated institutional laundering/autoclave cycles, that could abrade and degrade the coating. Thus, the useful life of the reusable medical product including the barrier fabric is extended.

A reusable protective clothing, including parameters of: (1) anti-permeability water pressure being: hydrostatic pressure of a new protective clothing ≥1100 cm H.sub.2O, and hydrostatic pressure after 100 times of repeated use ≥40 cm H.sub.2O; (2) moisture permeability of a material used ≥2500 g/(m.sup.2.Math.d), moisture permeability after 20 times of repeated use ≥5000 g/(m.sup.2.Math.d), and moisture permeability after 100 times of repeated use ≥8000 g/(m.sup.2.Math.d); (3) synthetic blood penetration resistance ≥grade 2 in table 3 of GB19082-2009; (4) outer surface water spray grade ≥grade 3; (5) breaking strength ≥45 N; (6) elongation at break ≥15%; (7) filtration efficiency for non-oily particles ≥70%; (8) charge amount ≤0.6 μC/piece; (9) static decay time ≤0.5 second; (10) continuous burning time ≤15 seconds, smoldering time ≤10 seconds, damage length less than 20 mm.

The present invention is a fistula sleeve for covering and protecting a fistula on the inside of an arm. The sleeve grips the wrist and adjustably and snuggly fits around the wider contours of the arm without imparting pressure on the fistula. The sleeve partially opens to expose the fistula for dialysis and daily care. A narrower wrist region secures around the wrist. An elongated forearm region wraps around the forearm, and a smooth central region covers the fistula. The wrist and forearm regions are independently secured. Securement strips have semi-rigid backings that stiffen the side portions of the sleeve help secure and remove the sleeve with one hand, and form a spine to help maintain the alignment of the sleeve on the arm. A double layer of material is stitched together along its perimeter, while the inner layer is free to slide relative to the outer layer in the smooth central area that engages the fistula. The sleeve stretches laterally to grip and secure around the wrist, while allowing the forearm portion to snuggly fit around the contours of the forearm and accommodate the fistula in a non-pressure generating manner.

Fabric materials are disclosed that have been treated with a water resistant and antimicrobial treatment. The water resistant and antimicrobial treatment includes a combination of a durable water resistant composition and an antiviral composition. Protective garments can be made from the fabric that provide protection against airborne pathogens by preventing penetration through the fabric material and by destroying any pathogens that land upon the fabric.

A quick release medical gown, which is formed with a pull cord on the front shoulder of gown, attached at one end to the outside of the gown, and run through the collar, where it is attached at the neckline closure on the gown. the gown closure is a quick release fastener, such as snaps or a hook-and-loop closure. The device is designed so that the cord on the front of the gown may be pulled, unfastening the neckline closure, and allowing the wearer to remove the gown with little to no need for assistance, or reaching behind themselves. This design allows for decreased risk of contamination for the wearer, and allows them increased independence in donning and doffing their gown.

The present invention relates to a method including a rubber-like film-based article of which at least a portion is firmly fixed to a substrate. The method includes providing a film-based article made of a non-crosslinked thermoplastic rubber, contacting at least a portion of the film-based article with a substrate so as to form a contact area between the film-based article and the substrate, and heat sealing at least a portion of the contact area at a temperature of 190 to 250° C. for at least 1 second.

A personal protection system can include a membrane including a body, a first glove, and a second glove. The body can be positionable around a frame. The body can define an internal volume and can define a closed portion including a closed end. The body can define an open portion opposite the closed end, where the open portion can be configured to receive the frame into the internal volume. The first glove and the second glove can be connected to the closed end and can extend away from the open portion. The first glove and the second glove can be configured to invert into the internal volume when the frame is positioned within the internal volume.

A wettable SMS material for personal protective equipment, such as a SMS fabric that has been treated to improve the wettability and absorbency properties of the SMS fabric is provided. A treated SMS fabric for personal protective equipment can retain its durability, breathability, and comfort, and may also provide the fabric with wettability and absorption properties. An article for personal protective equipment formed from a wettable SMS fabric is also provided.
