AAMI Level 3 Protection for Outpatient Procedures
As a nurse in an outpatient clinic or urgent care, your workflow is all about efficiency and safety. You move quickly from room to room, and your procedures—while “minor”—still carry risk. Whether it’s suturing, wound irrigation, or I&Ds, you need fast, reliable protection against splashes. The Medtecs IL-0023BTU is an AAMI Level 3 gown designed for your fast-paced environment.
This 100% waterproof PE gown provides the right level of protection for moderate-risk procedures, and its smart design features help you work faster and safer.
Fast, No-Fumble Donning
You don’t have time to struggle with complex neck ties. The IL-0023BTU’s overhead, apron-style design is the fastest way to gown up. You can pull it on in seconds as you enter the room, tie the simple waist tie, and be ready for your patient.
Secure Sleeves with Thumb Loops
When you’re focused on a procedure, the last thing you need is a sleeve riding up your forearm. This gown’s integrated thumb loops are a simple but critical feature.
- Keeps Sleeves in Place: The loop hooks over your thumb, securing the sleeve under your glove.
- No Gaps, No Risk: Prevents splashes from contaminating your wrists or arms.
- Work with Confidence: Allows you to glove up quickly and focus on your task.
The Right Protection for Clinic Work
This gown is specified to meet the real-world risks of an outpatient setting.
AAMI Level 3 Waterproof Barrier
Why Level 3? This standard is designed to resist moderate splashes and spray. This is critical for:
- Wound irrigation
- Suture/staple placement or removal
- Abscess incision and drainage
- Blood draws (especially arterial)
The 100% PE material is fully waterproof, so you never have to worry about soak-through.
Lightweight & Disposable
The 23gsm material is lightweight and won’t weigh you down. As a single-use gown, it ensures a fresh, hygienic barrier for every patient, preventing cross-contamination.
