Bibliography

This EN 13795-2 specifies test methods for evaluating characteristics of surgical drapes, gowns and clean air suits.NOTE 1Test methods are specified by referring to a standard test method and, if necessary, specifying amendments to adapt the test method for the purpose of this document.NOTE 2EN 13795-2 does not cover a test method for evaluating adhesion for fixation for the purpose of wound isolation as there is no suitable test method for adhesion to human skin available at present. For more information on adhesion for fixation for the purpose of wound isolation see EN 13795-1: 2002, Annex B.
