Medical Subject Headings (MeSH): Head Protective Devices

Head protective devices are a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) that healthcare workers may wear to protect their head from potential injuries. These devices can be used in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, and laboratories, and are often worn by healthcare workers who are at risk of head injuries due to the nature of their work.

Examples of head protective devices include:

Hard hats: Hard hats are typically worn by construction workers and other individuals working in environments where there is a risk of falling objects or other head injuries. They are made of hard, impact-resistant material and have a suspension system to absorb the force of an impact.

Helmets: Helmets are another type of head protective device that may be worn in certain healthcare settings, such as during air medical transport or in the operating room. They are typically made of lightweight, impact-resistant material and have a secure fit to protect the head from impacts.

Face shields: Face shields are a type of head protective device that covers the face and head and is worn to protect against splashes, sprays, and other potential hazards. They may be worn by healthcare workers in settings such as laboratories or during certain medical procedures.

It is important for healthcare workers to wear appropriate head protective devices when necessary to reduce the risk of head injuries and ensure their own safety.
