Isolating clothes cannot be placed in the changing room. The isolation clothing has a two-way protection function, which can not only protect medical personnel from being polluted by blood, body fluids and other infectious substances, but also protect patients from infection.
Isolation clothing is required in the following cases:
1. For patients who implement contact isolation, such as patients infected with multi drug resistant bacteria or colonized patients, they should wear isolation clothing when entering the isolation ward.
2. May be contaminated by the patient's blood, body fluid, secretions and excreta.
3. Diagnosis, treatment and nursing of patients in protective isolation, such as large area burns and bone marrow transplantation.
4. When entering ICU, NICU, protective ward and other key departments, it shall be decided whether to wear isolation clothing according to the purpose of entering and the contact with patients.
It can be seen that the main reasons why the isolation clothing cannot be placed in the changing room are as follows: First, it is only used in the environment where isolation is required, and it should be placed near the exit, population or hospital bed of the isolation ward for the convenience of the staff; Second, the isolation clothing may be polluted after use, and the changing room belongs to the clean area.
