Frequently Asked Questions

During the COVID-19 pandemic, medical staff commonly wore isolation gowns and coveralls for diagnostic tests, safety screening, and other types of medical assessments. Choosing the appropriate and qualified personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential for ensuring the safety of all medical staff, particularly in quarantine facilities.

Isolation gowns provide front-end coverage, leaving the mid-calf and back open to enhance comfort.

In contrast, coveralls are designed to provide full-body coverage, making them ideal for frontline medical practitioners who are at a higher risk of COVID-19 exposure. The closures and seams around the joints of coveralls are particularly important as they enhance the effectiveness and durability of the garment.

Ultimately, selecting the right type of PPE is critical for worker safety. Safety managers should guide medical team members in selecting the appropriate protective gear, while manufacturers should provide datasheets on their products to ensure they meet the intended specifications.

The tapes around the suit can provide better protection and prevent liquid leakage.

Medtecs CoverU Disposable Isolation gowns are suitable for normal storage conditions, such as in their original packaging, which should be kept dry, clean, and dust-free. Uncontaminated coveralls can be safely disposed of through incineration or burial in controlled landfills without causing harm to the environment. However, the disposal of contaminated garments should comply with local laws and regulations in the relevant country or region.

In 2004, the FDA recognized the consensus standard American National Standards Institute/Association of the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (ANSI/AAMI) PB70:2003, “Liquid barrier performance and classification of protective apparel and drapes intended for use in health care facilities.” 

New terminology in the standard describes the barrier protection levels of gowns and other protective apparel intended for use in health care facilities and specifies test methods and performance results necessary to verify and validate that the gown provides the newly defined levels of protection:

Level 1: Minimal risk, to be used, for example, during basic care, standard isolation, a cover gown for visitors, or in a standard medical unit
Level 2: Low risk, to be used, for example, during the blood draw, suturing, in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), or a pathology lab
Level 3: Moderate risk, to be used, for example, during the arterial blood draw, inserting an intravenous (IV) line, in the Emergency Room, or for trauma cases
Level 4: High risk, to be used, for example, during long, fluid intense procedures, surgery, when pathogen resistance is needed or infectious diseases are suspected (non-airborne)

Regardless of how the product is named (that is, isolation gown, procedure gown, or cover gown), when choosing gowns, look for product labeling that describes an intended use with the desired level of protection based on the above risk levels. Product names are not standardized.

The ASTM F739-12 standard, published by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), describes the features and properties, and testing methods for the passage of liquids and gases through protective clothing materials under contact conditions. 

ASTM F739-12 method is designed for use when the test chemical is a gas or a liquid, where the liquid is either volatile (that is, having a vapor pressure greater than 1 mm Hg at 25°C) or soluble in water or another liquid that does not interact with the clothing material.
