Research evidence

Infection Control Evidence

Are reusable scrub caps as safe as disposables? The research is clear.

45,708 surgical cases analysed

Meta-analysis found no significant difference in SSI rates between reusable and disposable headwear (OR: 0.79; 95% CI: 0.59–1.07)

2024 Journal of Hospital Infection

Gumera et al.

Largest meta-analysis to date: 9 studies with 45,708 cases found no significant SSI difference

45,708 cases
2017 J Am Coll Surg

Markel et al.

Cloth skull caps shed fewer particles and microbes than disposable bouffants

45,708 cases
CDC/HICPAC

Evidence-based SSI prevention guideline does not specify disposable headwear

2017
ACS Joint Statement

No evidence that headwear type affects SSI; bouffants least effective for particle containment

2018

The commonly used disposable bouffant is the least effective for particle containment
