Frequently asked questions
Does this gown meet rigorous safety standards?
Yes, the Contec CritiGear gown is engineered with BloxTech fabric and is strictly certified under the ASTM D6978-05 standard, ensuring a high level of protection against a wide range of hazardous drug compounds.
Is the gown designed to stay securely in place?
Absolutely. It features several design elements for a secure, stable fit during work:
- Knit cuffs with thumb loops to prevent sleeves from riding up.
- Extra-long side-fastening waist ties that keep the gown snug.
- Hook and loop neck closure to maintain full coverage.
Can I easily verify if the seams are sealed?
Yes. The gown includes USP-required sealed seams that are highlighted with highly visible blue tape. This design serves as a clear, quick indicator that the gown provides the proper level of protection for hazardous compounding activities.
Does the design offer full body coverage?
Yes, this is a full-back, wrap-around gown. It is specifically designed to provide complete protection across the front and back, making it ideal for environments where safety from chemical exposure is paramount.
Is the fabric comfortable for long procedures?
The gown is constructed from a specialized multi-layer blend of Polypropylene, PVC, Polyethylene, and Polyester. This combination is engineered to balance necessary barrier protection with the comfort required for professionals performing extended medical compounding tasks.
Why is the side-tie feature beneficial?
The extra-long ties allow you to fasten the gown at the side. This is a critical safety feature in controlled environments because it minimizes dangling components, reducing the risk of contamination or interference with compounding work surfaces.
What environments is this gown best suited for?
This protective garment is specifically designed for high-risk clinical settings, including:
- Pharmacy compounding
- Oncology departments
- Any clinical environment requiring high-level barrier protection against hazardous chemical agents.
Is this a reusable garment?
No, this product is disposable. It is designed for single-use applications to ensure maximum safety and to prevent cross-contamination in sterile or controlled environments.
Is this the correct size for larger users?
This specific variant is sized as 6X-Large / 7X-Large. It is designed to provide a generous fit for professionals who require a larger protective garment without compromising the gown’s wrap-around coverage and security.
Are the thumb loops helpful for glove placement?
Yes, the knit cuffs with integrated thumb loops are highly effective at keeping sleeves securely in place. This helps create a reliable interface between the gown sleeve and your medical gloves, further reducing the risk of skin exposure at the wrists.
