Medical Scrubs For Medical Professionals

Medical scrubs are worn by almost the entire medical workforce, or whosoever needs to interact with patients; not just surgeons. Till the early 20th century, surgeons and other medical personnel wore regular clothes while performing surgeries. The middle of the 1900s saw the introduction of surgical clothing for the purpose of protecting surgeons from infection. At that time, medical uniforms were white in color and were representative of cleanliness and conscientiousness. Eventually, the color was changed to green for the sake of convenience and comfort.

Medical Scrubs: Different Kinds

Medical scrubs are now available in an array of colors and patterns. So how do the professionals determine which type of attire to use?

Pediatric scrubs – Pediatric staff members generally wear uniforms with cartoon characters and other bright, cheerful prints. Sometimes, they may even choose to change their work clothing according to the season. For instance, they might wear attire with Christmas tree prints during Christmas or bunnies during Easter. Such cheerful clothing is meant to put young patients at ease.

For Identification – Some hospitals use medical scrubs in different colors to identify members of various departments. For example, pink or lavender apparels for those working in the labor and delivery department, light blue outfits for those in surgery, and dark green or blue for those in the emergency room. Scrubs may also contain a logo or name of the clinic or hospital. The logo is either printed on the shirt pocket or the knees.

Surgical – Earlier, the terms medical and surgical scrubs were used synonymously, since they were worn only by surgeons and those who worked in the operation room. Now, each category is specified differently since all have their own color codes.

The color of medical scrubs was changed to green because the bright lights in the operation room combined with the white sheets and coats caused eyestrain. Green contrasted with the surroundings, and thus reduced eye fatigue. Green also made blood and other fluid stains less noticeable.

Medical Scrubs: Considerations

With the various styles available online, purchase medical clothing from a reputed website to ensure better prices. Before purchasing, make sure that it builds on your professional image and lends a stylish look. You will have to deal with patient transfers, equipment movement, cleaning patient area and more. Therefore, ensure that you are comfortable and can move easily while wearing the outfit.
