Sterile drapes, sterile surgical gowns, and sterile cleanroom clothing are used to minimize the spread of infectious agents to and from surgical incisions in patients, thus helping to prevent postoperative wound infections.

The dressing performance required for the patient, surgical team, and equipment varies, for example, depending on the type and duration of the procedure, the degree of humidity of the operating area, the degree of mechanical stress on the materials, and the patient's susceptibility to infection.

The use of surgical gowns that are resistant to fluid penetration can also reduce the health risk of the surgical team due to infectious agents carried in blood or other body fluids.
