The Glove Made from Love: A History of Surgical Attire
Abstract:
The development of surgical attire is well documented in historical photographs and evolved in response to the changing understanding of aseptic and antiseptic techniques. Surgeons throughout time remained significantly opposed to changes in attire, and it was over a century that we evolved from wearing black frock coats to the current attire of today. Interestingly, surgical attire remains a source of controversy even today, with a recent argument regarding skull versus bouffant caps that was quite publicly debated.
