Green Scrubs: A Brief History
Overview
Surgical greens have a fascinating history in our culture. Introduced in the 1970s, these scrubs became a staple in surgical attire. But why choose green? Interestingly, any shade of green offers high contrast in the predominantly white, sterile environments of operating rooms, reducing eye strain for surgical teams.
Evolution and Significance
Recently, green scrubs have gained popularity beyond surgery. The rise of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus highlights the critical need for sterility across all medical settings. While white scrubs suggest cleanliness, green ones better conceal stains, maintaining a more professional appearance.
Scrubs have evolved since the 1970s, from their color to maintaining features like v-necks and drawstring pants. Originally called "surgical greens," the name "scrubs" emerged because of their use in sanitized, or "scrubbed," areas.
Diversification and Functionality
Today, green scrubs are common in hospitals, with many clinics adopting less strict dress codes featuring colorful designs and prints. The variety now extends beyond green, offering a range of professional colors.
Scrubs symbolize the sterility and professionalism of medical facilities. Since the late 1910s, medical attire has proven essential not just for surgeries but across healthcare environments. Maintaining a sterile environment reduces the spread of illnesses, making scrubs a vital barrier against contagions.
Conclusion
Whether you’re a doctor, nurse, or part of the clerical staff, the benefits of wearing scrubs are undeniable. Green scrubs have a rich history and continue to evolve. Today, many medical professionals opt for fashion-forward or designer scrubs, balancing sterility with personal style.
By choosing green scrubs, you contribute to a clean, safe, and professional healthcare setting.
