Underpad chux are absorbent pads placed under a patient to help protect beds, stretchers, chairs, and other surfaces from moisture and contamination. They are widely used across hospitals, long-term care facilities, clinics, and transport settings because they support everyday workflows: incontinence care, hygiene, procedures that involve fluids, and environmental protection.
A Fenestrated surgical drape is a sterile barrier sheet used to cover the patient and surrounding area during a procedure while leaving a purposeful opening (the “fenestration”) to access the operative or procedural site. This simple piece of hospital equipment plays an outsized role in maintaining an organized sterile field, supporting infection prevention practices, and standardizing workflow across operating rooms and procedure areas.
Sterile drape is a sterile barrier medical device used to help create and maintain a controlled, aseptic work area around a patient, a procedure site, and/or clinical equipment. In practical terms, it is one of the most common “silent enablers” of safe surgery and invasive procedures: it reduces the chance that microorganisms from skin, surfaces, staff clothing, and nearby equipment migrate into the procedural field.
Povidone iodine swabstick is a single-use applicator designed to deliver povidone-iodine (an iodophor antiseptic) to skin or other approved external surfaces as part of routine antisepsis workflows. In many facilities it is treated as small but high-impact hospital equipment: it shows up everywhere from procedure trays and outpatient clinics to emergency carts and operating room prep areas.
Chlorhexidine swab is a single-use antiseptic applicator designed to prepare skin before common clinical procedures. In hospitals and clinics worldwide, it is routinely used to support infection prevention during activities such as vascular access, injections, and dressing changes. Because it is simple to use but deployed at high volume, the device has outsized operational impact: it influences standardization, workflow speed, supply resilience, and patient safety.
Alcohol prep pad is one of the most common single-use consumables in modern healthcare. It is a small, disposable pad or swab impregnated with an alcohol-based solution, primarily used to support routine antiseptic skin preparation and to clean certain small clinical contact points (for example, vial stoppers) as permitted by local policy and product labeling.
An **Antimicrobial hand soap dispenser** is a wall-mounted, countertop, or freestanding dispensing unit designed to deliver a controlled dose of antimicrobial hand soap (liquid or foam) for handwashing at clinical sinks and hand hygiene stations. While often treated as general-purpose hygiene hardware in many jurisdictions, in day-to-day practice it functions as **hospital equipment** that supports infection prevention programs, staff workflow, and patient safety culture.
Hand sanitizer dispenser is a point-of-care dispensing system designed to deliver a controlled amount of hand sanitizer (commonly gel, foam, or liquid) for hand hygiene. In healthcare facilities it is used as hospital equipment to support routine infection prevention practices for staff, patients, and visitors—especially in high-traffic and high-acuity areas where rapid access matters.
Beard cover is a simple but important piece of hospital equipment used to help contain facial hair and reduce the risk of hair shedding in clinical environments. You will most often see Beard cover used as part of a broader personal protective equipment (PPE) and attire policy—particularly in operating rooms, procedure areas, sterile processing, and other settings where cleanliness and contamination control are operational priorities.
Bouffant cap is a lightweight hair-covering headwear commonly used as part of clinical attire and personal protective equipment (PPE) in healthcare facilities. Its primary role is practical rather than therapeutic: to contain hair and reduce the chance of hair, dandruff, and lint shedding into controlled environments such as operating rooms, procedure areas, sterile processing, and cleanrooms.
Shoe covers are protective over-footwear used in healthcare and clean environments to help limit contamination transfer from footwear to floors and controlled areas, and to protect staff footwear from spills and soiling. Depending on design and intended use, Shoe covers may be supplied non-sterile for general facility hygiene or sterile for use in specific procedural workflows.
A **Surgical gown** is a protective garment worn by healthcare personnel to help reduce the transfer of microorganisms and exposure to blood, body fluids, and other potentially infectious materials during surgical and other invasive procedures. It is a foundational piece of **hospital equipment** in operating rooms and procedure areas, and it sits at the intersection of patient safety, staff safety, regulatory compliance, and procurement reliability.
Isolation gown is a core piece of personal protective medical equipment used to reduce the transfer of microorganisms and body fluids between healthcare workers, patients, and the care environment. In day-to-day hospital operations it is often treated as a consumable, but its performance directly affects infection prevention programs, staff safety, and continuity of clinical services during outbreaks and supply disruptions.
Sterile surgical gloves are single-use, sterile-packaged gloves designed to create a protective barrier during invasive procedures performed under sterile conditions. As a regulated medical device (and a staple piece of hospital equipment), they sit at the intersection of patient safety, staff protection, operating room efficiency, and procurement resilience.
Disposable exam gloves are one of the most frequently used pieces of hospital equipment in modern healthcare. They are a single-use barrier worn on the hands to reduce exposure to biological fluids and contaminated surfaces, and to support infection prevention during patient care and clinical workflows.
