What medical products are made from fabric/textiles?
< 1 min reading time

I am interested to learn about the fabric/textile products people are using in their medical-related work.

I am particularly interested to learn what problems could be helped with new or improved fabric/textile products. Thanks!

Hi Ruth,
The last company for which I worked used textiles in it’s positioning products. The “must haves” for support surfaces/positioners were:
-Breathable yet fluid-proof
-Washable or wipe clean
-Minimal heat build up
-Potential for multiple-patient use.

I hope this helps.

We develop sewing machines for medical devices. We find AAA and heart valves and several types of endovascular filters are used the most common textile devices.

Thanks for these answers. I have two reasons for asking. Initially, I am starting to teach sewing and thread arts in the small town in which I live and would like to show students that sewing is much more than making shorts and skirts. There is a much greater potential future in medical textiles that I will want to introduce them to.
I also have worked for many years in the area of adaptive clothing for Individuals with disabilities and want to include alternate fabrics as well
