Patients acquire hospital-acquired infections or healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) while receiving health services in a hospital or any other healthcare facility. Common pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, cause these infections. HAIs include catheter-associated urinary tract infections, surgical site infections (SSI), central line-associated bloodstream infections, ventilator-associated pneumonia, hospital-acquired pneumonia, and several other infections. Many surgical devices can act as HAI spreaders as well. Isolation gowns are mandatory to use during any medical procedures in healthcare facilities. They help prevent cross-contamination, transfer of body fluids, and any infection-causing microorganisms and penetration of liquids. Government agencies, such as the National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), closely monitor the infections that help prevent HAI and enhance patient safety. Due to the increasing awareness, robust preventative measures, and the implementation of infection surveillance measures in hospital settings, the prevalence of HAIs is reducing significantly. Therefore, it is established that the rise in awareness regarding HAIs is increasing the demand for medical isolation gowns substantially across the region, leading to an upward thrust in the market’s growth.
