Testing in AAMI Level 4

AAMI has identified American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International3 F1671 as the key test requirement that a surgical gown must pass in order to be labeled AAMI Level 4.

ASTM F 1671- Synthetic Blood Penetration Resistance Test

ASTM International F1671: is the Resistance of Materials Used in Protective Clothing to Penetration by Blood Borne Pathogens Test. This is a pass/fail test that an AAMI Level 4 surgical gown must pass. The test method has been specifically designed for modeling penetration of HBV, HCV and HIV. Because these organisms are difficult to use, the test uses a bacteriophage, Phi-X174. Phi-X174 is one of the smallest known viruses, and it is similar in size and shape to HCV, the smallest bloodborne viral pathogen.

How it works

A surgical gown’s material is subjected to a nutrient broth containingPhi-X174 for a specified time and pressure sequence:

  1. Five min. at atmospheric pressure
  2. One min. at two PSI (pounds per square inch)
  3. 54 min. at atmospheric pressure

The test is terminated if visible liquid penetration occurs before the end of 60 minutes. If no visible liquid penetration is seen, then a sensitive microbial assay is performed to determine pass or fail. Any evidence of viral penetration for a test specimen constitutes a failure. If a production lot of surgical gowns passes this test in all four surgical gown critical zones, it qualifies as an AAMI Level 4 surgical gown.

What areas are included in the critical zone?

AAMI standards require a surgical gown to pass ASTM International F1671 in the critical zones in order to be labeled an AAMI level 4 surgical gown. What areas are included in the critical zone? There are typically four different areas that must pass within the critical zones, including two in the front chest and two on the sleeves. If a product passes ASTM InternationalF1671 in all applicable areas, then it qualifies as an AAMI level 4 surgical gown.
