Great News for Anyone in Hospitals

That sounds like a very good idea, if it works. However, if people just learned to wash their hands more often, most of those bugs would be gone and the infection rate would go down by 3/4. They did a survey with a camera in two of Canada's biggest hospitals and found that the people who washed their hands the least were DOCTORS! So, If your doctor or nurse comes into your room and doesn'twash their hands before touching you, tell them to do so before coming near your bed!

Sounds like an interesting thing to improve the treatment of patients in hospitals. But until this is made widely availble, we'll be waiting. I think they should do with insurance companies, and have a lot lower and affordable in surance for people. Now that would be a great improvement in the Health Care System in the United States!

That sounds good. If it stops all these infections spreading round hospitals it should be pushed in to use. And also anything that means your bum isnt hanging out has got to be a bonus!

What a brilliant idea, this kind of thing worried me sick when hubby had his bypass last year, they tried so hard in the ward but people would sit on the beds and put things on the beds, I worried all the tome about infection, the staff were lovely though I must admit xx

what a wonderful idea. I hope it works and they become available world wide. The hospital is such a dangerous place. Too many germs floating around from so many different illnesses. I have gotten MRSA two times while in the hospital. I think the gowns would help in many ways. Thanks for the information.

That sounds incredible! The permagard alone is a great addition. I love the idea bacteria is destroyed removing the threat of it becoming immune to the protection. I think it a great improvement.

For use in Hospital then fine hospitals, need to be sterile. There is far too much MRSA been allowed to spread in hospitals. A lot of it caused by too much use of antibiotics, this has a chance of killing bacteria. Need to check that bacteria don't find a way round this as well.

its about time someone came up with a way to stop staph infection.these gowns will stop some of the infection but not all of it.but anything is better than nothing,as long the new gowns work.plus haveing a gown to cover your behind is something they needed long time ago.lets just hope these gowns work an can be use all over the world to help control staph infection.

sounds great and glad it covers you up for I hate the back door exposure ha ha

This would be GREAT! My father was recently in the hospital for an abdominal anyorism. He was embarresed to ask the nurses for help back and forth because the back of him was not properly covered, and of course, he couldn't wear underwear because of the stitches and operation site. He also got sick while he was in there, and had to go thru a whole bunch of tests for staph, and some other new bacterial infections that lurk in the hospitals. Luckily, he didn't have any of those! Just for the patients modesty, a new gown design would be awesome.
