    (Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2017) Rubio Silvestre, Angela Azucena; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
    Objective: To evaluate and determine which type of surgical clothing—woven or non-woven fabric—offers the best cost/benefit ratio for the provision of surgical clothing in the Sterilization Center. Materials and Methods: Observational and retrospective systematic review, with a restriction to full-text articles. The selected articles underwent critical reading using the GRADE system to identify their level of evidence. Results: In the final selection, 4 articles were chosen, with 75% from Brazil and 25% from Spain. 50% of the studies were cross-sectional, 25% were systematic reviews, and 25% were quasi-experimental studies. Half of the studies found woven fabric to be less expensive than non-woven fabric, while 25% of the articles found that woven fabric left microfibers that adhered to the surgical wound, causing damage. Another 25% found no significant benefits between woven and non-woven fabric. Conclusions: No significant evidence was found to determine whether woven or non-woven fabric is more suitable for providing surgical clothing in the Sterilization Center.
