Protective suit

摘要

A method and apparatus for providing a protective enclosure is provided. The protective enclosure is used to form a fabric barrier surrounding a patient to prevent contamination from the patient from spreading. The protective suit provides access panels so that a limited area of the patient may be accessed for treatment purposes. The method and apparatus allows a patient to be retained within the protective suit during transport and while receiving treatment. The protective suit thereby limits the spread of contamination to the surrounding environment, including health care personnel and diagnostic machinery.
