Surgical shoe covers are very important for several reasons. First, an operating theater needs to remain completely sanitary and sterile. Surgical shoe covers can be made of polyethylene or polypropylene. Polyethylene is a non-static, non-woven material. This means, dirt and dust and other particles cannot stick to its surface, and since it’s non-woven, dirt and dust cannot be ground into the weave. Surgical shoe covers remain clean and sterile. Secondly, surgical shoe covers can protect your feet and footwear from unfortunate stains and materials. Surgical shoe covers will not allow blood or other liquids to seep through to stain your shoes. Third, most surgical shoe covers are anti-skid. This means you can walk and move freely without worrying about slipping on a slick, hospital floor. The added tread on surgical shoe covers means added safety. You can worry about doing your job and not about slipping and falling in the middle of an important, complicated procedure. Surgical shoe covers keep the environment clean and sterile, protect your shoes from spillage and stains, and help prevent accidents. Surgical shoe covers are also cost-effective and disposable. Surgical shoe covers have an elastic ring for a firm fit and extra protection around your ankle. Most surgical shoe covers are one size fits most. |
