Abstract: Cost Effective Redesigning of Surgical Helmet was aimed to address the issue of the high cost of surgical helmets while maintaining their necessary features to prevent infection transmission between medical staff and patients. The project involved redesigning and creating a prototype surgical helmet with cost-effectiveness as the primary consideration. The study considered change of manufacturing processes, materials used, and part geometries to reduce cost without sacrificing the helmet's effectiveness. The project's objective was to develop a bi-directional biologic prevention and protection surgical helmet that met all requirements at a lower cost. The results of this study could lead to increased availability of surgical helmets in medical settings, ultimately improving patient and medical staff safety.
