The Right Protection for a High-Splash Environment
As a dialysis nurse or technician, you work in one of the most high-risk environments for fluid splashes. Connecting and disconnecting lines, handling dialysate, and managing potential line separations create a daily risk of exposure. You need a gown that is reliably fluid-resistant and, crucially, stays in place. The Medtecs IL-2025YTU is the AAMI Level 2 gown that delivers on both.
The Problem: Constant Splash Risk & Sleeve Gaps
You can’t do your job without leaning over, reaching, and performing fine motor tasks—all of which challenge your PPE. A simple splash can soak a low-quality gown, and a standard elastic cuff *will* slide down your arm as you work, exposing your wrist at the worst possible moment.
The Solution: A Secure, Fluid-Resistant Barrier
This gown is your trusted partner for dialysis shifts. It is specifically designed to counter the risks you face.
- AAMI Level 2 Fluid Resistance: This gown is certified to resist splashes and sprays (AATCC 42 & 127). It provides a proven barrier against blood and dialysate, so you can work with confidence.
- Secure Thumb Loops: This is the key. By anchoring the sleeve under your glove, the thumb loop creates a gap-free seal. Your sleeves will not ride up as you connect lines or adjust machinery.
- Breathable 25gsm SMMS: Dialysis units can be warm. This lightweight, breathable fabric keeps you comfortable, even when wearing PPE for long periods.
This is the reliable, everyday protection you and your patients deserve.
A Gown Designed for the Dialysis Clinic
The IL-2025YTU is built with features that enhance safety and compliance during your specific workflow.
Why AAMI Level 2 is Essential
AAMI Level 2 is the appropriate level of protection for the splash risks inherent in dialysis. It provides a tested barrier that Level 1 or non-rated gowns simply do not.
Full Coverage Design
The over-the-head design and waist tie provide 360-degree coverage, protecting your front and back as you move between patients.
Ultrasonic Seams for Integrity
The ultrasonic seams are stronger than stitching and provide a more reliable fluid barrier, as there are no needle holes for fluid to find.
