McKesson Chemotherapy Procedure Gown FullBack AAMI Level 2 Blue Medium

Description

Product Overview

The McKesson Chemotherapy Procedure Gown is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of oncology environments where safety, comfort, and durability are paramount. Constructed from a polycoated spunbound polypropylene fabric, the gown delivers a low‑lint, breathable barrier that resists penetration from a range of hazardous chemotherapy agents. The material is reinforced with a protective film that enhances tear resistance while maintaining a soft hand feel, allowing clinicians to work for extended periods without skin irritation. Measuring 41 inches in length, the gown provides full‑back coverage, reducing exposure risk for both the wearer and the patient. The waist tie system ensures a secure, adjustable fit for a wide range of body types, while knit cuff sleeves prevent fluid ingress at the wrists. Certified to AAMI Level 2 standards, the gown has been tested against twelve common chemotherapy drugs, confirming its efficacy in protecting against liquid splashes and aerosolized particles. The product is non‑sterile, latex‑free, and supplied in a convenient 10‑count pack, making it an ideal choice for busy medical facilities that require reliable, disposable protective apparel.

Usage

Designed for use in hospitals, infusion centers, oncology clinics, and any setting where chemotherapy preparation or administration occurs, this gown offers versatile protection for a variety of clinical tasks. Whether a nurse is preparing cytotoxic drugs in a pharmacy cleanroom, a pharmacist is compounding chemotherapy mixtures, or a physician is administering treatment in a treatment suite, the gown provides a barrier that minimizes the risk of contaminant transfer. The full‑back design is especially beneficial during procedures that require frequent movement or bending, as it prevents accidental exposure of the torso and back. The waist ties allow quick donning and removal, which is essential in high‑turnover environments where staff may need to change gowns multiple times per shift. Additionally, the low‑lint property helps maintain a clean environment, reducing the potential for particulate contamination in sterile areas. The gown’s blue color offers high visibility, aiding in rapid identification of protective apparel during emergencies or rapid response situations.
