How to Remove Surgical Caps

Science has summarized the use of surgical caps an important piece of attire to avoid local and general infections in operation rooms. They stop dead skin particles and loose hair from contaminating areas where patients are going to get medical surgeries. They consist of a piece of fabric, approximately 26 inches in diameter, and an elastic band sewed around the borders to make it circular. The removal of caps is a very easy, hassle-free procedure.

Instructions

• 1

  Make sure you are in a safe area, away from the operating room.

• 2

  Pull the cap off the back of the head by grabbing it from the front to the back, if it is a "mushroom cap," and sliding it off your head. If the cap has ties, pull open the bottom tie, and then the top before pulling it off.

  Discard cap properly in an appropriate container, usually placed in non high-risk containing areas such as hallways or offices.
