Leading medical fabrics manufacturer DuPont has produced a new brochure entitled ‘EN13795 – Understanding the Standard’.
The EN13795 Standard was introduced in 2004 to help prevent the transmission of infectious agents between patients and clinical staff during surgical and other invasive procedures. The Standard, which has been ratified and harmonised by all EU countries, now includes Part 3: setting new standards for the performance levels and performance requirements for surgical gowns, drapes and clean air suits.
The strict requirements of EN13795, illustrated in DuPont’s new brochure, provide recognised industry-wide benchmarks for manufacturers and healthcare providers. Through easily comprehensible text, data tables and step-by-step diagrammatic and photographic illustrations, the brochure fully explains the essential requirements of all three parts of EN13795.
