Workers in many different occupations are at risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens, including Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV/AIDS.
Magnetic Transfer Drapes
The Bloodborne Pathogen Standard states that facilities should use proper work practices to help eliminate needlesticks and other sharps injuries.  A "No-hands" procedure or "neutral zone" helps to eliminate hand-to-hand instrument passing in the operating room.  One method of accomplishing this neutral zone is through the use of magnetic transfer drapes.
