During this COVID-19 pandemic most elective surgeries have been cancelled, which leaves many surgical drapes unused. This available material can be repurposed to fabricate makeshift surgical hoods to provide more protection around the head and neck. This surgical hood also leverages an existing face shield design that has been reviewed for clinical use (https://3dprint.nih.gov/discover/3dpx-013406) to provide the structure to secure on the head and the clear plastic shield. The overall design is simple and lends itself to be tailored for different wearer heights and face shield sizes.
